Been working on my pc for the last 2 days. One of my video cards blew and somehow corrupted the OS. Tried to reload Win 7 and it kept stopping at a certain point. Finally gave up and reloaded XP.

Now I gotta go thru the RMA process to get a replacement card and limp along on one card.

Ouch! Sorry to hear that D - I hope the RMA process is quick.

Strange that it would corrupt the OS though.

it has been known to do that spike but on very rare occasions something go screwy with the chip/software for the vid card and it goes bonkers and manages to trash all sorts of stuff in the OS. but the last time I believe I heard of it happening tho was back with win95 the crappy OS that it was!

Did you know ATI classifies that card as a legacy card?
