Default Geforce DDR256

serious problems with this card...bought it second hand from achmalach ,he seems a nice guy.

so problem: i CAN boot up with him,bios detects him, i can boot up windows ,and even work with windows a while , then he freezes...

vulkaantje and eniac adviced me to delete my drivers...i didnt help.

so i formated my entire hd...i could instal me (more then 20-25 minutes taht the card was online)

after the instal i needed to reboot to compltet the instaltion..and then the screen came to 800*6xx instead of 640*480 and then he hung up on me again.

i geld the card it wuz HOT...but i have 3 casecoolers and the core cooler of the geforce256 also works

any ideas?
i already bought a corb of TeuS maybe that wil help..or not?

had something like that happen with my original creative GF1 DDR, when I overclocked it too high

got it back through RMA though

now sitting in my server @ default speed
but also 3Dmarked it with a total score of 4400

nope, in the BIOS it started showing artifacts, in 3D games it showed white verical lines

I don't think that piece of HW is still under warranty
pretty old already
