While playing GTA the other day, the picture distorted quite seriously, so being the cautious type, I quite to Windows. Here I found that the desktop had changed with the fonts near the edge of the screen becoming more compressed horizontally. A restart didn't solve it. All games that involve horizontal motion now look like they are curving round.
The card is a Diamond V770 Ultra with more than one fan cooling it. It was running on beta 6.67 detonator drivers at 160MHz core and 190MHz memory. I had previously not experienced problems on these settings. The drivers have been changed back to official releases. Monitor is a Hansol 710D 17" (brand new).
Do these symptoms suggest a fried graphics card (there's no physical damage)? Is there some way that I can fix the card, software wise, without buying a new one?
