Hey guys,

I don't know if anyone can help me, but i'm going insane.

Since i bought my XFX 8800 GTS Fatal1ty, i have the most strange problem, im some games, in specific places my computer simple freezes, and i need to turn it off and on, the strangest thing is that it doesn't happen after x minutes or after high temps, it happens in the exactly same spot, for example, i'm playing Half-Life 2: Episode Two, at the end of the game my computer crash, i can't see what happens when the two floating combines come through the window, like, if i try to zoom in to see from a close distance, black screen! This happens in another games...

I pretty sure i have enough power in the 12v rails, since i could play the whole game and nothing wrong happened.

Does any of you guys, know what might be wrong? Had any similar problems?

I know that this video card is not the best one, but in Brazil is the same price as a 8800 GTS 320mb.


Thanks for the help.
