looking like that. Any suggestions on how to fix? Driver is 270.61
A friend of mine has that problems.

CPU: Intel Q6600
RAM: 2 GB
Graphicscard: GTX 580

I know the card is too much for this system. New CPU and board already on its way.

thanks

I seem to remember a similar post regarding XP and a Nvidea GFX upgrade and the problem was solved by upgrading to Win7 OS and running DX10.

See what others say but I just installed a GTX560ti (after upgrading from XP to Win 7/64) and have no graphic glitches with my Dual core mobo and the latest Nvidea drivers. I have 4Gb of memory so if not a DX problem maybe its a memory related issue - not sure on that aspect.

Had the same problem with a GTX460. Had to go back to my GTX260. I cant remember were the post was but its a known bug with DX and XP 32 bit. I did see a post were it was stated they were working on it biut I didnt recognize the name so I dont know if the were credible or not.
