Default hey guys

I currently have the mobo in my sig with its onboard 8200 graphics running as I just sold my 4670 to make way for a new 4770, but I have connected upto the VGA for the first time ever and I am getting all vertical lines wavering badly like they are being seen through heat haze or something, its very annoying! I have the latest drivers straight from the XFX website and runnig GPU-Z it is showing temperatures of 68 degrees before I do anything, for instance I know this card can play settlers 6 ok at low settings low res cause I was doing it earlier (wavering lines arent so noticable ingame) but if its going to overheat and damage my Mobo then I dont want to gun this crappy little onboard gfx, any ideas as to whats going on??

I'm no expert with onboard graphics, but I'd reset the BIOS to optimised settings to rule out any bios problems.. if you have the right drivers and the bios clearing shows no improvement, then there's either a problem with the chip itself, or how windows reads it (Corrupt driver maybe? try reinstalling.)

Hope I've helped.

Ok so I just got back from a lovely 1 week break in Turkey, but my onboard Gfx is still fecking about, it now keeps flashing off and when it turns back on the resolution is reset down to 800x600 as if the chip is reseting itself or something! I dont really mind that much as my 4770 will be here oh so soon, its just annoying to not know what is wrong with it!
