Video card

[nVdia]

I have been having problems with my video card its a 6600GT it freezes on med and high settings on bf2 and Vietnam and sometimes on farcry. I just got call of duty 2 and it doesn't freeze. So im wondering if its just video memory because it only happens on med high settings and call of duty requires less video memory.

restart your PC and see if you have the same problem.

i guess the video card is dying...

Could be a driver conflict. Possibly a memory leak by these programs.

Out of curiosity, what wattage PSU are you running? The card may be a bit of a strain on it.

If the card was crapping out, you'd have more issues than that.

Hey I just bought the card like 3 weeks ago and my psu is 480 watt thermaltake pure power. o yah and in call of duty 2 it doesnt freeze with the directX 7 only on DirectX 9 setting

have u got the latest directx installed ?? i think its 9c ?? and also make sure your nvidia drivers are the latest ones...you can download them from here

www.nvidia.com

if that fails...try uninstalling the card and reinstalling it
