**Arkantos** · 02-09-09, 11:22 AM

My Current Configuration is

Phenom II x4 810

Asus M4a78T-E

Corsair XMS3 1333 2x2GB

Corsair vx450

Seagate 500gb HDD

Circle Cosmo Red

APC 650VA

LG w2243t Monitor

There is a strange problem. when ever i try to play GTA liberty city at resolution greater than 800 x 600 the screen freezes. I notice that the machine is still on, but the Monitor Goes into power saving mode.

when i Press Alt+Ctrl+Del and Alt+Tab sometimes the Screen appears but wierd with black spots.

This problem occured with zoo tycoon 2 but with installation of ATI catalyst the problem disappeared.

I have not Overclocked anything running the Configuration with default Bios settings. PC probe Suite shows me 42-47c for Proc and 42-43c For MB.

plz help..ASAP

Get driver update for graphics adapter if possible buy addon graphics card like HD4770/GTX260 according to your budget.

Its clearly a graphics card issue. Try playing other games and check if the problem is there with them as well... Try updating your graphics card driver and still if it doesn't help then I guess you will have to go for a replacement if in warranty.
