Damn, when i play games using directX, or when i see the windows xp loading when i start the computer, there is all kinda dots, stripes, an bad renders, and when in game, there's weird "walls" all over it? where's the problem? I know it's not overheated.

Oh yeah, my specs are:
CPU - intel c2d e6600
Mobo - asus p5b
RAM - 2G 800Mhz
PSU - Antec 550W

are you sure its not overheating? Because it sounds like the VRAM getting too hot.
anyway.. did the card always had that problem? or did it suddenly start?
have you tried uninstalling the driver, reboot and instal it again? ( the newest one downloaded from their site)
 
Yes, and no, it started just a few hours ago while playing UT2004.
I've tried re installing the driver yes.
 
Well... looking at the picture you posted,... I'm pretty sure its not hardware related. when you uninstal the driver of the card, and boot windows, do you still have the?

(Like you may have noticed.. i dont know an answer for it right away,.. so feel free to ignore my posts, and wait for someone who does know the answer perhaps ofcourse :) )

edit:.. now that i think about it... On the windows loading screen,.. the drivers arnt loaded yet, are they? so it actually could be a hardware problem.

When i un installed the driver, and then when i re install the newest driver (6.9) it gets about half way trough the installation process, and then comes a pop up that says : zero display found. and then another one : No display found.
And so i restarded windows again, and it says i've got the driver installed, but there's still those dots, and stripe thingys. Is it becouse it Found no display?
 
uninstal the drive, and shut down your pc,.. put the monitor on the other DVI port, fire up the pc again, and intal the driver.. it could be that on DVI port is defective. or at least look if the monitor is connected propperly :)
 
like i asked... if you uninstal the driver.. turn off the pc, and boot it up again... do you still get the weir looking dots/ stripes on your screen?
 
damn .. :(

but... considering you dont get the weird dot's etc when no driver is installed,.. we know the hardware should be ok,.. so this has to be a software problem... did you instal something recently wich could have messed up a bit?
