Hey guys, I'm having a problem with my GPU by the looks of it and i'm wondering if it's completely bust or if there is anything I can do. Basically, I was playing Diablo 3 and my computer suddenly froze, with green pixels all over the screen. I could still see Diablo 3 in the back ground, but there were thousands of green pixels all over the screen. I couldn't Ctrl+Alt+Delete or Alt+Tab out of the game, so I turned my PC off using the power button.
When starting it up again, the resolution had changed to 640x480 and my graphics card could not be detected. Tried starting multiple games, and all reporting errors such as "Could not load direct3d". I've had my GPU for quite a while now, it's a nVidia GeForce 8800GT 512mb.
Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
