Sorry por estar em english mas é que já tinha postado noutro forum e pronto... nao me apeteceu estar a escrever tudo de novo.


Hi there, in Resume : i was trying to find someone with the same problem as mine, and i found this guy :

Strange graphical glitches when we boot up. Red and green spots appear on anything the radeon is rendering and messes up polygons. Happened inside a 3d application for apparently no reason Tried latest ati drivers to no effect.

Good The same problem as MINE let's see the answer to that :

you forgot one important spec.....power supply? Nforce 2 mobos require a minimum of a 350 watt psu. The combonation of all of your stuff warrents the purchase of a good quality 400 watt psu minimum. By good quality I mean a good reputable brand like enermaz, antec, vantec....etc. Not some cheapy that came with a $100 case.
Those symptoms are normally the result of underpowered ram on the video card. One way to find out if that is it is to download radionator 2 and underclock the card.

Good... maybe... I HOPE GOD is my PSU that is a crap. let's test, great i put my 9700 pro Clocks at 9700 Gold and no problems.. maybe is the psu. now let's try do unplug some devices and see if i can work with my 9700Pro At Factory Clocks.

now as stupid it may seems "try to help me please", see this pictures and their Description:

"My Computer With Everything Connected, DVD, CDRW, 2 HDD, And ATI 9700 PRO" 12V...13V

"My Computer With Only ATI 9700 Pro and Master HDD"

And i thought... ummm maybe my ATI 9700 Pro Pushes a LOT of voltages and A. let me connect my Banshee and nothing else and see the results :

Now is this My PSU that doesnt have enouth power to only 1 hdd and 1 VGA Card "and still supports the rest" , Is This ASUS PC Probe Garbage and Doesn't Means a Sh** or What? Any HELP Please?

Remember I Dont Have My 9700Pro Overclocked, in fact the only way i can run Games without problems "artifacts" is pushing my ATI clocks to Gold Clocks. this test's of voltage were made with Pro Clocks "because it's when i get artifacts.

My PC is One :

Asus A7V 266
1024 DDR "266"
2 HDD
1 DVD
1 CDRW
AMD 2 200

NOTHING ELSE.

My PSU is one OEM 350 Watt "i think"
