Hi all,
I have a problem running for months. When I play any games the graphics are ok then during 5-20mins gameplay the graphics will turn funny colours will look funny, text will turn to blocks etc, occasionaly I will get a BSOD n4 dist error - any ideas whats causing it?
I have 2x Geforce 9800GT GPUs in SLI. This is a self built system.
I tried eliminating the cause but no luck, these are the things I did...
Updated to the latest Nvidia graphic drivers (v.195.62)
Individually tested the GPUs on its own - both came up with graphical errors so not the GPUs.
Installed EVGA Precision tuner and put GPU fan speed (both of them) to 85%, both temp averaging 36C when heavily used in SLI. - so not the temperature.
Individually tested 4 sticks of 512MB Corsair XMS Platinum DDR400 Ram - same problem occured, not the RAM.
I have tested on 2 monitors - same problem - not the monitor
I am at a loss - Please help.
My specs:
Asus A8N-SLI Premium motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 x2 3800 CPU
4x 512MB Corsair XMS Platinum DDR400 Ram (2048MB in total)
2x NVIDIA Geforce 9800GT GPUS in SLI
OCZ PSU 520W.
Windows XP Home (32bit)
I evn clean installed Windows XP and put everything back in - did not work (I screamed at my PC!!)
I also supply my Dxdiag log:
