[QUOTE="bluebear, post: 669161, member: 82697"] You are right. I recently put this card in. Can´t remeber when these problems started, freezing and crashing. I will pull it right away, and see what happens. Or rather I will change it to HD4650 1GB. Edit; Short update: Made some test runs in OCCT just to check the 3870 card and sure enough it had some 16 errors after ~4min. Made another test with my hd4650 and it had 0 errors after 4.20 min. Something is not ok with the 3870 card. I have not had any other problem that could be related to the card other than in Mediaportal. So I´m testing with the 4650 now, hopefully the crashes and freezes are gone. Edit 2; So far no crash. Thanks for the headsup pilehave. I still experience degrading picture and eventually freezing with audio still going. My machine is a single seatt. I have seen others with similar problem, so hopefully there is a solution for that. Edit 3; I´m not sure it was due to faulty GFX, most likely broken driver or both. I tried clean it up with driversweeper but couldn´t completly remove some files. CCC refused to start etc. So I took the easy route and made a clean install. Wow, this time it really works! No crash, no freeze. Even fifa11 flows super silky smooth. Happy days. [/QUOTE]
