I have a problem which happens a lot while playing FPS's and some other games. For some reason with some of the objects, characters etc. will have thick lines coming off them heading upwards towards the ceiling or sky. For example when I was playing STALKER there was a think line coming off one of a characters heads and my weapon, heading towards the sky. I'll try and get a screenshot next time it happens, but has anyone had this problem?

If anyone could help I would apretiate it. Thanks.

a screenshot would be nice. it kinda sounds like artifacts. have you been OC'ing lately, or is your card hotter than normal?

I had that problem with mine when I had a card like that......its a driver issue and also could be the power supply getting weak.....the 6800 series uses more power than the 7800 series.....if I were you as cheap as cards are now......just get a newer one and check your power supply
