Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I saw a post that you had a bunch of games. It was very old but I thought I would still ask if you had Silent Hill 3 and Fatal Frame still. I am looking for any survival horror games on ps1/ps2/gamecube actually. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that and still the same thing. It just sticks at 1.188 in BIOS no matter how many times I change it.
Do you think it would be safe to revert back to F11 BIOS to see if that works?
I have had the Gigabyte P35-DS3R board for a couple months now. I have it coupled with the e8400 wolfdale and some high performance Mushkin RAM. Everything has been great until today I noticed my CPU was running at 3.60Ghz instead of the usual 4.0. After trying to set it back to 4.0 and...
Yeah. I gotta feeling it is the first batch of those cards or something. I got two from newegg and both were bad. The one from eVGA works fine and plays like a champ.
Hope you get it fixed Pretzel. I know pissed off I was at my problem, I can imagine you are doing the same.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!! I got my new card and 16x/16x!!
I cannot believe I got two bad cards in a row! I appreciate everybody who posted trying to help me over the last few days, you guys rock. I seriously have a boner a mile long right now and plan to FINALLY benchmark this rig.
eVGA = best...
Well that doesn't make me too optimistic about this new card coming today. Though my link width is always 1x no matter what. I cannot change it. I am also using P35 chipset.
Maybe pretzel is having that issue though.
Because eVGA is awesome, they rushed out my RMA yesterday afternoon and it is already set to be delivered today. Cali to Arkansas in a few hours is good stuff.
Anyways, it will be the 3rd card I try. Coupled with the new PSU, I hope to God it reads 16x and all is well. If not, I really...
I've ran a 8500GT and 8600GT at16x with no issues at all. Nothing else seems to be weird other than video problems. I dunno, weird stuff. The 1x problem seems to only effect 8800GTS 512 and GTs (G92) on multiple different boards.
Sounds like its runnin at 1x to me, but I dunno. Pretty much the same thing happenin to me.
I found a printout of my video stuff. Doubt it will help, but I'll post it here anyways incase somebody sees something.
I really, really, REALLY hope it doesn't come to that. Thats just a pain. Since two other cards have ran x16 perfectly and the only problems I seem to be having are video. But if all else fails, I guess it must be done. :(
I reinserted my RAM for S&G and the freezes and glitches seemed to have gone away. It also restarted 3 times in a row without issue. I'm gonna keep running tests and try to up voltages with this new PSU to see if I can fix it.
*edit*
Whatever. That restart beeped three times and I got...
Ok I just installed my new PSU and to my suprise it beeped 3 times and no video again. After trying 4 times I got it to boot for some reason on bios defaults. I am not in windows, still running at 1x with a brand new PSU and unable to boot into windows 100% of the time. I also get the same...
