[Paranoid Delusion]

Woke up this morning to find my desktop looking like a Picasso painting.
Managed to go into safemode and uninstall drivers, which let me boot into windows ok.
Reinstalled Drivers, resolution now ok upto 1152x648, if i go 1 setting higher, colours go awry and desktop segmented.

I think my nice graphics card is about to die.

Anyone else experienced this one.

ps cleaned interior (compressed air) about 6 weeks ago, whilst fitting new sata drive.

Found problem, one of my HDD temp sensors had come unstuck and fallen straigt onto the graphics card, weird most modes worked ok.
Had already dug out the receipt sept 15 last year and my old fx5200 ready to send back, so was amazed when i took the side off, to see the above sensor just fallen there.

Everything back in it's place and back to using MP again.

Heat does all kinds of great things to electronics

Do not think heat, more of a short circuit, strange effect thou.
