that was brand new complete rig?
I could be wrong actually. But change in resolution usually means the OS "lost" the drivers, you get the same effect when you update the driver, for a short period the system has to run without them. But usually they either work or they don't. Funny error you got there. That overclocking screen, was that blue screen like or still within windows? Last edited by swiss; 11-07-2011 at 02:04 PM. |

No...no blue screen...just the black screen like when you have to select safe mode. Except it had that message about over clocking and it had some choices of how to start windows...can't really remember them now.
Yip...strange indeed. The 570 is brand new and never did recognize the hdmi cable I plugged in from the start. But as soon as I put the gts250 back in it worked....with no problems. Is it possible that my 570 (type and brand) may use a different driver for the hdmi than my gts 250? I still think the card was fubar from the get go. I hope I am wrong cause I don't feel like waiting another 2 weeks to get a replacement. Whiskey |

Nope. Gigbyte recomends an older driver on their site though, but this can't be the problem. if your 250 works drivers are ok. bios is almost ruled out(you would get a black screen plus it's not an onbard card which you can oc/mess w. in the bios) Maybe it's some crappy OC software, or a lemon card. I've never seen a OC option in the boot menue. ![]() Wtf is that? Last edited by swiss; 11-07-2011 at 03:26 PM. |

Well, for me personally it sounds very much like a faulty graphics card, I doubt very much its the bios.
