There is no RMA on used rigs...

Re: Windows 7 *GUARANTEED* fix
You ain't kidding. With two dead rigs in seven months...
I also installed a new breaker panel for my office. Each outlet now has its own 60amp breaker and all of the outlets are now GFCI. (Ok...I paid somebody else to do that part)
I'm self-employed and these rigs aren't just gaming rigs, they're my lifeline and primary money maker (hence the large drive space). The last thing I need is yet another unpaid three week vacation.

Ran a quick test from a thumbdrive DL copy. Samesame, guess its back to square one on the testing. But if I can fill the screen with the full version that should help my eyes.

The proper resolution to most problems is maximum available firepower.
RELOADING,

Re: Windows 7 *GUARANTEED* fix
That does smart nice replacement though, chuck a few more inputs at it mainly USB & top machine.
Easy solution is buy the game the Desktop patch works a treat.
At start up I decide whether to run fullscreen or if working set it to fill about 80% of it so I can keep an eye on whats going on.
Your machine will hardly notice its running & if what you do uses a lot of memory recomend upgrading fast. Surprises me how much faster machines run if you are using less than about 70% memory most of the time its a cheap speed up. Or at least worked that way for me.
