Blacky Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) Try the video memory stress test: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Benchm...ress-Test.shtml . It is likely your video card got screwed. Edited January 15, 2009 by Blacky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajimi_255 Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 haaa the test ran just fine. so i guess that my card is still fine. btw i did turn off powermizer lastnyte & no garbled image since then. :) i wonder if powermizer is the culprit.. hmm. thanks btw for the link to the download :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same problems with my Acer 5920G with GF 8600M GT (not overclocked). Drivers 180.84 and 181.20 cause garbled image and notebook pending. Only 180.43 is working stable. May be 185.20 will be better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
