Computer problems.
Alrighty I am about to throw my computer out the window.
First off when I reset my computer and turn it on I need to disable my second monitor and re enable it cause if I don't it well just flicker on and off. After I disable it and re enable it it works fine. Secondly when I play World of Warcraft I like to watch youtube videos while I play. The only problem is is that when I watch them I have to watch them in 240p. If I don't it well lag my game and then cause my whole screen to go green then after about 1 minute it well go back to normal and I get a notification in the bottom saying Windows has recovered from a display problem or something like that. This has been going on for about six months now and its fucking annoying me. I should be able to watch a god dam youtube video and play wow at the same time. and yes my video drivers are up to date. If I reinstall windows do you think it well fix the problems? Specs here. CPU: Intel Core i7-860 Lynnfield 2.8GHz LGA 1156 RAM: 4gb (2x2gb sticks) ddr3 1600MHz Motherboard: ASUS Maximus III Formula LGA 1156 Intel P55 Video: HIS Radeon HD 5850 1GB GDDR5 Harddrive: Western Digital 1Tb(2x500GB) 7200rpm SATAII Harddrive Case: Cooler Master HAF X PowerSupply: CORSAIR 850watt modular power supply Cooling: Noctua NH-D14 OS: Windows 7 64-bit |

I think im just going to buy a new Graphic card. Would Two of these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6814161302 be better than one of these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6814130595 |

RE: Computer problems.
not sure a new graphics cards the answer, gotta look around for some sort of an error log in the driver settings or windows so you can figure out the problem. sounds like its a software problem not hardware. a clean install of driver might fix it. have you always had this problem or at one time did it work right?

RE: Computer problems.
Sounds like a shitty video driver to me. Btw, most recent video driver version doesn't always mean best. The last time I used an ATI video card, the most recent drivers didn't even work once I used 3D. Whole system would freeze. However, using an older driver worked great.
