Troy <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |NOTABUG --- Comment #3 from Troy <[email protected]> --- Well it took a while but I eventually discovered Video Memory Test (VMT) which is like memtest but for video ram. I downloaded the ISO version (VMTCE) from sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/vmtce/files/ After completing the test there were 223,834 errors. Nice... not. Further investigation suggests nVidia might have switched the type of solder the year after my card was manufactured, due to high failure rates in notebooks: http://www.tgdaily.com/hardware-features/39045-nvidia-gpu-failures-caused-by-material-problem-sources-claim Anyway, my problem is indeed a hardware error, most likely all those solder joints have micro fractures. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
