Playing WoW for the first time in a long time, settings on high, when half way through a PvP battleground I get a power surge. System reboots and I am given a screen telling me about the power surge, instantly faced with horizontal artefacts everywhere! Device Manager shows the GPU as there but error code 43, not working properly.
I have tried a few work arounds, mostly software, such as reinstalling drivers or completely uninstalling all nvidia software, with no luck. Tried changing slot of GPU, didn't work, cleaned it, didn't work, can't replace cables as I have no spare ones.
System works fine using onboard graphics, and EVEN WORKS WITH A old RADEON 1GB GPU!!!!!!!
