| 213443 | 2004-02-07 04:03:00 | Hey Team im after Video Card Tetsing sofware, is there windows Based software out there, or is there only DOS based? reason is i want to know if my G card is dying for the 3rd time. the first time my G Card died i got some serious symptoms with my monitor. it didnt do this the 2nd time my card died. a black line would appear across my monitor, and the lightframe option on my Phillips flatscreen would go nuts, turning itself off and on. the problem with my G card dieing the first time was the VESA ram was fryed. is the problem i have with my monitor related to my Vid Card ??? Thanks. James |

| 213445 | 2004-02-07 07:47:00 | Yeah as Chill suggested you may want to use some benchmarking software. Try 3D Mark SE (mainly DX 8 and earlier DX versions, not a lot of DX 9 support) and the Gun Metal benchmark for better DX 9 support. What kind of graphics card do you have? cheers chiefnz |

| 213446 | 2004-02-07 08:01:00 | yea, did some DX testing no probs there, did some simple benchmark tests, no probs there, and i have a GF4 Ti 4200 Leadtek | Jams (1051) | ||
| 213447 | 2004-02-07 08:09:00 | It could possibly be early signs of your monitor packing in, what kind of monitor do you have and how long have you had it? Might also try adjusting your refresh rate? cheers chiefnz |

| 213448 | 2004-02-07 09:24:00 | hmm. i have a Phillips 107B3 FlatScreen Monitor, had it since August 2002. i hope its my monitor, LOL, as my G-card now costs more than a New monitor with the prices of Monitors lowering faster than the price of air fares. thanks for your Help :). Thanks James |
