C. Weird colors and spikes may be overheating Video ... or.... Ram
What is your Ram and vidcard GPU temps before the errors and once the errors begin?

D. ...or might be driver issue:
You might try:

1. Uninstall the ATI drivers

2. Reboot without installing any vidcard drivers ( may be in safe mode)

3. Clean all remnant drivers which may be left behind on your PC both nVidia and ATI.

4. Reboot

5. Install ATI drivers from CD - do not allow winblows to install it

Let us know if you solve it and how..

PEACEs
I uninstalled Nvidia drivers, then installed the driver on my cd, then updated the ATI to the newest one. I may uninstall the driver and install the driver that came with the cd. I may also try the Omega driver to see if that helps.
I am thinking of selling the card and buy Nvidia again, but I like the card in other games so I don“t know what to do..
Yep, Lock On is a fun game! Look at my videos. Have done a few of them in Lock On. Runs with no problems! I think ATI supports Open GL not as good as Nvidia...Also, my mobo supports two RAM slots. Both have different colours, so no dual channel. I have one piece of 1GB PC5300 667MHZ and one 2GB PC5300 667MHz. I have overclock on in the CCC panel, will also try to turn of overclocking to see if that helps. I have monitored the temp, not over 50C, so no problem with heat ether.
