I've been playing games like FEAR, FarCry, Doom3, for a long long time and just the other day FEAR crashed and has crashed every single subsequent time I've run it, preceded by artifacts such as faintly green colored grids on the screen, random coloration of textures, etc etc. The game always runs again after a computer restart, but not before. Its every game, too, not just FEAR. I've reinstalled every single combination of drivers I can think of including VIA Hyperion, DX9c, Forceware, etc etc nothing helps. I suspect highly that my video card RAM is overheating (not the GPU, because from temperature monitoring I've determined that its peak temp is 53 C, which is fine).
Is there anyway to get this card working again, or do I have to shell out money out the dickhole just to be able to entertain myself again?
Thanks in advance for anybody's help.
