Hey Wizkid, I played wow with the fan turned up and still the same ( what a racket ) its has to be either my monitor response rate is more than the stated 5ms or my motherboard is breached somewhere, but before i do anything ive just bought crysis on ebay so gonna run that and see how my system copes.
Here is my system spec btw...
Motherboard: 7050m-m
CPU: AMD Athlon 64x2 6000+
GPU: HD4870 1gb
TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S202J ATA Device [CD-ROM drive
SAMSUNG SP2004C [Hard drive] (200.05 GB
4gb Viesta Ram
Windows Vista ultimate 64bit
Acer 22" Monitor P223W
Enermax galaxy 850w PSU
As WF said there is no reason why it wont run I am afriad that I have run out of ideas. Have you tired posting on the WOW Tech support fourms? Have you run 3D Mark 06 and tested the card to see what happens?
Hi all, i purchased benchmark 06 and im afraid i dont have good news.
On the second graphics test it stopped and i got this message:Idirect3dvertexbuffer9:lock failed n/a (unknown)
My taskbar gave me a message saying: Display driver atimdag stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
The second time round it preformed this test but on the 1st and 2nd cpu tests i was getting 0fps and 1fps.
Then on this test: HDR/SM3.0 Graphics test about 2 seconds in it stopped and this message appeared: Idirect3ddevice9 Present failed device lost (d3derr_devicelost)
Right guys i just managed the whole test and my score was 9846 and according to benchmark 06 compared to 24 similar spec pc's i rank last.
Not sure what to do now, would you agree a new motherboard and cpu is the best thing i can do, i know my gpu is fine because i had this same problem with 2 other cards...
