king99, keep exploring your problem. I suggest that:

1) Make a clean installment of your ati driver. After uninstalling it, boot to safe mode. Use Driver Sweeper and CCleaner to clean your remaining files and registries. After that boot to windows and make the installment. Or,

2) Try to use a different DVI-VGA dongle or use a DVI-D to DVI-D cable if your monitor allows it.

3) If above still gives you the same problem, find a friend with a similar system and try your GC on his system. Do the same as above for your friend's system. Preferably find a system with high PSU watts or +12v single rails.

If all 3 tests doesn't solve anything.. it's RMA time

Well I'm using a Dell 1907FP.

Tried 60 - 75 hz


I'm using the white colour one. ( DVI ? )

Furmark testing now.

BTW anyone here using DVI-D to DVI-D cable? I tried using but my monitor phails me by not detecting any input.

Ya agree with desmond1310 bro, i also suspect is the DVI or VGA problem with his monitor or LCD.
Anyway, you can try to troubleshoot with the steps he mentioned. And if can, please provide the info from my question so our members here can try our best to help.

Normally for LCD the refresh rate should at 60hz, so u try doing the stability test for 30 mins - 1 hour and see.

Ok Thx.

I'm Reinstalling Drivers now....hope it works

Has anyone here experience some problems when you OC your 4850 to 740/1140? I did that and during playing FIFA08, there were several hangs during the game and then it crashed. Even at 725/1125 gave hangs but no crashes.

Wah desmond1310, you OC your 4850GS somemore? The existing clock don't serve you well? Anyway i'm less experience in OC GC, u need to get some expert from here to help you.

waluweii.. already 3000 posts. No need to create new thread meh?

@king99 , can i know ur motherboard name ?

Haha it's the card's ability to OC.. so it's fun to explore I'm using the autotune which always give me 740/1140, Supposedly I feel it should be stable, but it can't. I haven't tested it on other games though. Waiting for my FIFA09 ahem version in a few days time
Anyone here plays Mass Effect? Awesome stuff btw. Something like Neverwinter Nights, but pimped up with super guns!

I should just leave it at stock OC then.. extra 2.6G of bandwidth.. I wonder how will that differ in my eyes.

Will update if the problem happened agian.

Thx guys for helping me.

Can this power supply - Corsair HX 520 watt power a gainward gs 4850 or 4870 , 2 dvd drive , 2 hard drive , etcetra nicely?

Yes, I think it will work flawlessly.

I think it's my moniter lol...

Currently using my old 19 inch CRT moniter...

So far i don't see any flickering at all

Glad to hear that, anyway is time for you to upgrade to LCD i think.

22" LCD is dirt cheap now, yet i do not have the fund to upgrade
next year will be a good year for me to get one, at least a 22"
been bombarded by radiation from my CRT since 1998

Wakaka, do u suffer any illness from the radiation for 10 years?
To name a few:

LG W2242T for RM599
LG 226WT for RM589
Samsung 2253LW for RM685
BenQ T221W for RM585
BenQ G2110W for RM595

Nowadays 22" becomes affordable.
