Hi Everyone,

I was having an issue with Windows 7 where my graphics appeared to be "runny" for lack of a better word. Long story short, I rebuilt a new PC with all new hardware. Same problem. Swapped out my graphics card, and you guessed it, same problem. I decided that maybe I needed a gaming monitor, so I just purchased the ASUS VG248QE monitor thinking that would help. No dice. Here are the specs for my current system:

Operating System
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
CPU
Intel Core i7 7700K @ 4.20GHz 30 °C
Kaby Lake 14nm Technology
RAM
32.0GB Dual-Channel Unknown @ 1203MHz (16-16-16-39) *Crucial Ballistix*
Motherboard
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. STRIX Z270E GAMING (LGA1151) 22 °C
Graphics
VG248 (1920x1080@144Hz) *ASUS*
3071MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB (Gigabyte) 55 °C
Storage
476GB Samsung SSD 850 PRO 512GB (SSD) 27 °C
931GB Seagate ST1000DM003-1ER162 (SATA) 27 °C
1863GB Seagate ST2000DM001-1CH164 (SATA) 29 °C
2794GB Western Digital WD My Book 1140 USB Device (SSD) 27 °C
1862GB Western Digital WD My Book 1140 USB Device (SSD) 27 °C
Optical Drives
HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH24NSB0
HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH24NSB0
Audio
NVIDIA Virtual Audio Device (Wave Extensible) (WDM)

I find to have the most trouble when I am playing Second Life. I've completely uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. No other people are having issues with the game that I am aware of. This system far surpasses the minimum requirements to run that game.

I'm new, as I mentioned, so I don't see how to attach a picture to show you guys what it is doing. I do have one, though. I've not been able to find anything like it in searches. I've done searches for memory leaks as well. I really hope you guys can help. Thanks so much for reading.

Thanks so much in advance,
Kimi

It's the only game I play. There are no known issues with the game itself. As I had mentioned, uninstalling and reinstalling were no help. I started completely anew with the new build I did. It feels like it would be a graphics card issue, but I switched it out with another and still have the same issue. Thanks so much for your reply.

Download 3DMark and run Fire Strike and see what happens.

i have had similar issues before. go to the games settings and see in the graphic options if there is a DX option and try to change it from for exemple Dx 10 to Dx 9

As far as your Seagate drives listed go, you're well within the operating temperates of 0 to 60 degrees Celsius as per the spec sheet which includes both of the listed models. The nonoperating (ambient) temperature range is -40 to 70 degrees Celsius.

You could always use our free diagnostic tool SeaTools if you'd like to verify the drives' health.

Good luck in getting the issue sorted out!

It's not your PC and or graphics card, it's the game and or a setting in the game.

I would have thought so, too, but there are no issues with the game. I've checked with friends as well as the creator of the viewer I use for it. This is some crazy glitch for sure. The system should be running amazingly well.

It's not your computer that is the problem.

Contact the game maker and see if they can help.

Hi Everyone!

I just wanted to thank you all for your help and let you know what happened. I ran DirectX to check out all my programs. I use f.lux for when I'm on the PC at night. It was the problem. I uninstalled it, and my problem totally went away. Again, I thank you all for your time.

Happy gaming!
Kimi
