Problems with video

Ok so I swapped in my old nvidia 4200 and the problem is no more. Then I put my X800 into my old computer and after little bit (this time was onger than 5 min uptime) the monitor went blank and the orange light came on again. So it's the video card I think. Is this an overheating issue or...

Problems with video

Yes the fan on the card seems to be working fine ie. turning. The card is an X800XT, so yes it does need the power cable, which I have also tried changing with no luck. Currently after trying to get into windows for my little 5 min intervals I ran atitool and had it up for like 10 min...

Problems with video

This problem started sometime between last night and this morning. I wake up and go to get on my computer when I notice that I can't get video, I think maybe it froze so I rebooted...only I still got no video, the light on my monitor stayed orange. So I took the video card out, dusted it...

Random freeze/reboot

I have already ran memtest 86 before, and that was all fine. Back home for the holidays and have not seen the problem occur yet, though I have only been down for a few days. It might have been a heat issue because of the location it was in at my appartment. Will look into those other...

Video Problems

Same thing happened today, I guess it gave me a few hours there where it was going to be nice to me. This time around, I have inspected the video card again for traces of rouge thermal compound and have found no traces, my arctic cooler looks to be seated properly, but alas when I start up...

Video Problems

Yeah perhaps I made sure the 3rd time around they there were no spaces but did notice the 2nd time that one ram chip wasn't getting covered fully, maybe I can try to tighten that side a bit more. I might try to revert back to the stock cooler and see if that works.

Video Problems

Using a 420W Antec PSU, and yeah I have switched the power cables before so that it is on its own line. Weird thing is, it is working fine now but who knows how long it will last, I just played BF2 for like 30 min and it ran fine, and my windows is fine now (not getting the problems in...

That was also a thought I had, though this solution has worked for nearly a year and I am wondering why now, when the cooler seems to be working just fine tempature wise would these problems be occuring.

Lock up STOP 0x00000009c

There are two cases where this problem seems to happen, when I am playing a game, or when I have bit torrent open, and then I watch a movie say at the same time, I'd say about 40% of the time I lock up once. I was playing BF2 tonight and locked up 2 times. Basically what happens is the screen...

Yeah the only reason I raise the question is because it has locked up on my several times and I am trying to figure out why it is doing so. I've noticed it lock up so far at least, only in bittorrent and while watching movies, but then again it never did this while I was back in my old place and...

No that IS the problem. I was having lock ups when watching movies and sometimes using apps like bit torrent and what not. As said above it locked up 2x on me last night while watching a movie (about 2:30 in length) and it has happened before on previous movies as well. It has locked up several...

Thanks for the help. edit: Well, might have jumped the gun there, after I restarted its hovering right around 53C again, check in my bios and it is reading the same thing. It appears MBM gave a bad reading that first time around. Any more ideas?

Interesting, thanks for the tip. I had always put more on that that (not covering the entire thing, but more than they said there). But anyways, I am down to 42C right now, is that a more normal temp?

With the X800XT being just an underclocked X800XTPE what is the easiest/best way to overclock it to PE speeds? I'm sure it is quite simple just don't know which tool to use or which one is the best. Not looking for any speeds above the PE really.
