Ok, my machine is in the sig. Here is my more detail on my video card....Foxconn FV-N79GM2D2-HPOC GeForce 7950GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 OC Video Card - Retail
Item #: N82E16814186005 .....That 7950GT is dead. I can't seem to keep it stable. I've tried the latest driver at Nvidia and I also tried the driver recommended by Microsoft. I've tried to reduce the settings, turned of Aero and all the other fancy stuff but still every few mins I blue screen with a stuck thread error. So I've come to the conclusion that it's the card thats bad, not the driver. I've never RMA'd anything with Newegg before but I went back and looked and they don't even offer that card anymore so I'm not sure how that will work out if I want to RMA. As a second option I'm willing to bite the bullitt and just buy another card if I have to. I have $200, what would be the best card for the money??
