I installed on my mums pc an HD 4850 to be able to play Bad Company 2 but ever since i m going crazy.No matter what game i run monitor flickers like i have 100 mobile phones next to it and looses signal, when i shut the game everything goes back to normal.There is no overclock and the temperature is just fine @47 Celsius since i installed an aftermarket cooler on it (http://www.scythe-usa.com/product/vga/002/scvms1000_det...)
I tried almost everything re-sited the card on mb, clean installed new drivers, even reinstalled the aftermarket cooler but same thing...i m loosing my mind here!please help.
Here is how the problem looks like.

Your PSU seems fine.

Have you tried the card on another rig?

Is your MB compatible with AMD cards?

Try RMAing the card if problems persist.

As a hail mary, try using Cat 10.3 or 10.4 drivers.

IMO, anything after 10.4 is utter fail.
