I turned it off from the mains, then restarted, everything went back to normal, it worked for me, but if your card is knackered, then you may have to bite the bullet and purchase a nice shiny new one. I would turn you...

    x700 help PLEASE

    I have a Sapphire X700 256mb with a Zalman vf700-cu and can only oc it to 450/325 with out any problems, with a standard fan, I got it to 420/300. I know I should be getting more out of this card. I suppose its quite an improvement over stock which is only 400/250.

    Comp is dead,any ideas?
