A Spearhead clan mate of mine is having some wierd graphical errors that appear randomly whenever he tries to type anything in-game.

Here's a screenie: http://www.bddclan.com/forum/uploads/stealth/images/2005-07-11_230355_shot0231.jpg

It's got us all baffled, anyone out there got a clue what might be causing it?

wow that is weird,

I would try the basics first

Make sure nothing is overclocked, start by removing anything overclocked one at a time. ie. set CPU back to normal clock speed first test, then GPU

Try reinstalling video drivers (use drivercleaner to remove old drivers)

what was the last thing he did to his computer hardware or software right before this happened?

good luck and please let us know what fixes it.

Last thing that happened mate was that my dad took apart the PC in order to replace the fan inside it. we have checked inside and made sure nothing is loose etc inside the pc, we also did a system restore and so far today it hasnt done it, will keep you posted incase it happens again

If anyone ever gets this problem its because your graphics card fan isnt cooling your graphics card! thats what happened to mine and made these funky graphics, i have to get a new fan and get it installed.
