Loged into bfbc2 today & now I'm getting the white screen of death, I have sound, then it kicks me to a black screen or back to my desktop. I had a windows update back on the 16th but this started tonight. I've updated my videocard & having the same thing happen. Anyone else getting this? Or is it time for a new card?  |

Tryed it out tonight, I was able to play for about 3mins then back to the white. After restarting my computer I was going to go back to set the setting back to true-from false. When I saved it, it was false. So ya who the hell knows...  |

its only 10 mins and you can do it while shes gone LOL and its only gotta get hot enough to heat up the solder so that they make better contacts
however over doing it can be tragic i dunno never done it but there are hundreds of videos of people doing this lol good luck!!!! call me before you decide
you prolly should video tape it lol

damn, thats exactly what happened to my old video card, but I just got a new one to replace it. Tron there is an GTX550Ti (http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2011/03/15/nvidia-geforce-gtx-550-ti-1gb-review/1) which has been out for a while, it looks like a good card and you won't have to worry with your current PSU... Mike might know a better one tho.
