    Got another question. [Changing the subject line]

    I had only a speed problem under the original drivers- 4496? And
tried the beta drivers in hopes of raising the FPS, which it did, kinda.
But at times it showed (in EnemyTerritory, anyway) blackened splotches
and a whopping 5FPS. Yeah, that's five.  Talk about an upgrade.

    So I tossed it, came back to 4496, but:
  
    A) The blotching is still there.
    B) UT (UnrealTournament) which is perfect and faster, crashes the
second time I go to load the second map.
    C) Running the screensaver with an OpenGL mode, it works once, then
I have to restart the thing to select and see another GL screensaver.

    I've rebooted a couple of times, earlier tonight I did a cold
power-off to reset the card if it needs it...it's still there.

    I guess I coulda killed my card...but I'm not overclocking or using
it in any new way.

    Any ideas?

    (Yeah, I'm gonna check with Nvidia on the problem, too.)
