560ti TF2 1g OC possible issues

Let start with my system specs
CPU: i-5 2500k
M/B: Asrock Z68 Extreme 3 Gen 3
Ram: 2x4g g.skill Ripjaws f3-12800cl8d-8gbxm
GPU: 2x 560ti TF2 1g OC sli
PSU: Corsair 850w TX

I have been getting very random texture bugs, flickers on lighting and shadows.  I only play a few games so I will note what issues I have had per game
WoW: 1. The lightning effect has flashed in the foreground blocking foreground textures with a brief white square like texture where the lightning has occurred on screen.  This has only happened a few times.
           2. Similar to the lightning effect but regarding shadows.  A black texture would flash on an area or texture then return to normal.  This has only happened a few times as well.
GW2: 1. Rarely I would see black square or texture block flash on the screen, usually happens during movement or turning.  Doesnt happen that often compared to WoW
          2. Flashes of white or black at the corners and side of my screen, this happens the most often out of all the issues.
Alt-tabbing: At times I would alt tab the screen would go black for a second or two with a broken up white line going horizontally across the screen.
UAC /also firewall prompts:  A few time the screen would turn black before the prompt would pop.
MSI Kombustor: I have run the various tests but havent seen any issues.  The only thing I can comment on is the GPU burn-in test.  The words are blue with red lighting on the sides that varies as the image rotates.  Im not sure if this is an issue.  I thought I would mention it as 1 of the 560s tint everything red but I have since RMA'ed this card and have received a different card according to the serial.  The burn-in test heats up my top slot GPU to over 90C.  The other only push it 75C
Heaven dx11 benchmark:  I used this program to so I can run it in a loop watching for bugs while not being distracted by a game.  Not every pass produced the issues above but at certain points the same issue would occur every 1 of 5 or so passes.
1. The sky would flash white at the scene showing all the islands
2. During the night scene cross a bridge the building on the right at the end of the bridge would flash black
3. During the evening scene pass a building on the left going to the dock the airship was next to the white broken up line would flash while passing the building on the left
4. I had one instance of the screen showing square pink pixels at the top of the screen when a new scene was loading.  This could of been cause due to me changing the settings during the scene.  I have not seen it since or been able to reproduce it.
5. The scene from the small island over looking the town the smaller house's texture would bug out.  At time parts of it disappeared, bug out completely or the shadow effect on the roof would turn into a lighting effect.
What I have not seen or has happened are any drive crashes, bsods, hardlocks or type artifacts I have seen in other pictures and videos.  This is why I am not 100% sure about these issues as artifacts are usually very obvious and easier to reproduce.   No overheating on an part aside from the burn-in test hitting 95C.  Normal temps on hit 50-60 on the GPUS, 40-50 on the CPU, HDD stays around 35.                                               
Im not an expert when it comes to troubleshoot.  Previous issues have been very obvious such as a red tint.  Other issues were due to the fans making a grind noise.  These were easy to figure out so didnt require much effort on my part.  If you can suggest any tests I can run I would appreciate it.  I do not have another system that is capable of using any of my current hardware so I am limited to the hardware my system has and whatever tests I can run.

Any update for GPU2?  I will install GPU1's update and report back.  Should I just run the same Heaven tests or would you suggest any other tests I can run?
the second card is up to date

Sorry Ive never run a Vbios update before.  Should I burn the files to a Dvd and run it booting or in the OS.  What are the commands I need to use ?  I browsed over the different command lines but I have no idea which one I need to use.
Quote from: Shadimar on 13-October-12, 12:46:50
Or do I just run the windows script called flash?  Seems like the obvious choice but bios updates tend to brick parts if done wrong.  A lot of users with my M/B didnt follow instructions and bricked their boards which is very I want to be 100% sure what I should be doing
leave only card1 installed in computer [remove/take out the second one temporary]
then extract all files in some folder, and click on "flash", confirm with Y when asked,
then wait to finish [dos windows will self close] then power off/shutdown the computer and add the second card too

    When I update Nvidia drivers to anything new than 306.97 after a few days I get a TDR driver crash or artifacts.  310.70 would cause driver crashes. 310.90 caused artifacts in Civ 5 in the diplomacy screen which renders a 3d model of a civilization's leader.  This screen is much different than the rest of the game's graphics.  The artifacts didn't carry over to the normal graphics.  314.22 caused a TDR crash today.  I rolled back to 306.97 whenever a driver failed as these have been very stable.  I used these drivers from the end of January until the start of April without issues.  I have double checked my system settings with all matching the specs of my parts; Ram, CPU, PSU, etc.  I have no overclocks beside the factory OC that comes with the GPUs.  Is there anything I can do to check if this is an issue is linked to my GPUs?  Could this just be a series of bad drivers released by Nvidia?
    Any help is appreciated.

    I followed your instructions and have installed a fresh download of the 314.22 drivers.  During Driver Fusion's cleanup a small window opened stating that Driver Fusion could not remove all the files due to being a trial version.  For a full clean I would have to buy the Premium Edition.  Will this have any effect on your troubleshooting instructions?
    I will reply if/when this drivers had any issues.  It could be a few days based on my past experience.

    I just got my replacement phone from Warranty. The phone was on for just 2 hours and it crashed. I was told that motorola knows about this "possible" issue. I got a new sim, hard reset, If it can be done I did it. They are now sending me the same phone again. Number 3. I would hope this one doesn't crash but I rather have a different phone so I can enjoy using my account. The phone's most recent error was today. " Unfortunately, the process com.motorola.widget.circlewidget3d" has stopped. At least the error message works and it's polite. I told tech this and they could not answer my question or help me other then "let's do a hard reset" My warranty replacement is coming on Monday. Let's hope this one works. Anyone else havinbg the same problem. it says "such and such as stop working" on all sorts of stuff! Help! I want my iPhone Back!

    I just did a google search on this issue. OMG, I got a ton of videos on this or similar issues. Each one says in some way to clear the cache, reset the data, etc. Why in the world would this continue to happen and they not do a fix that resloves this without having to lose or stop what your doing. This is a very long and constant issue it seems with Android phones as there must have been pages and pages of what I now call "Unfortunately"  So I am going to pray that Verizon helps me  out and gets me away from this issue and helps me go back to iPhone or try the Samsung.

  • Possible issues changing name of vlan interface

    Hi
    I will be making some changes to the way our ASA 5505 is configured over the next few weeks. It is used mainly for our phone VPN clients to connect to our internal CME. The issue is that I shall be changing the inside network to another vlan and another IP address, although the name will be staying the same. I know that this will remove all the config which uses that interface name, such as NAT translations etc but my main concern is that when I put them back in again with the same name it may confuse the ASA in some way and just not work.
    Has anyone had any experience with this as I would really like to know possible issues before I get to them.
    Thanks very much in advance

    Hi Barbara, Glad you are around the Forums.
    Will it confuse any Backups or Clones OP has made on say a FWHD?

  • Any possible issues using Captivate 4 on Vista 64-bit OS?

    Hi:
    Looking to order a new PC and load up on ram for Captivate 4 and some other applications I am using.
    I realize Captivate 4 is not certified for use on a Vista 64 bit OS, but I am wondering if I will run into a bunch of performance issues or what your experience may be using C4 on a 64 bit machine.  I heard it is possible to force Captivate 4 to run as a 32bit application, but I don't know specifically how to do it.
    Any feedback is appreciated.

    None that I found.  I worked with adobe for a while and they sent me a couple of patchs that were supposed to fix the problem, and while I eventually could record audio, I never was able to edit it.  Adobe eventually lost interest and stopped responding to my requests.  I think it has something to do with Vista becasue I am running xp on a brand new 64bit Mac at home and it works fine.

    After a week's worth of debugging, I found the issue.
    The Java type returned from the call was defined as ArrayList.  Changing it to List resolved the problem.
    I'm not sure why ArrayList isn't a valid return type, I've been looking at the Adobe docs, and still can't see why this isn't valid.  And, why it works in Debug mode and not in Release build is even stranger.  Maybe someone can shed some light on the logic here to me.

  • What's possible issue with original Airport?

    Hi,
    I recently just purchased a used Powerbook G4 867 512M and installed an original airport card. The signal strength indicator seems to flicker in and out from no strength to highest but mainly resting at the "second" bar strength. This laptop is sitting next to a G4 tower which is getting full strength. Is there a possible issue with my laptops connectivity? Should I re-seat the airport card? What could be the issue?
    Thanx in advance.

    Hi,
    Duane. Althoughity, I didn't verify whether the card had any physical connectivity issues, I don't think that is the problem. I made the simple move in location and that seem to have change the "bar" strength. I guess where I was was not a good area for network connectivity. Thanks for possible solutions and causes.

  • [SOLVED] Possible issue with makepkg or gnupg 2.1???

    I am quite willing to admit that it's possible I'm totally stupid and missing something basic, but I just wanted to see if this makes any sense to you folks. Basically, I'm wondering if there's a regression in makepkg or gpg-agent with GnuPG 2.1.
    Step 1: Verify the condition of my personal keyring.
    gpg -k | grep Xyne
    No results. Good.
    Step 2: Verify the condition of pacman's keyring.
    sudo pacman-key --list-keys | grep Xyne
    No results. Good
    Step 3: Use pacman-key (NOT my local GPG keyring) to import Xyne's key and trust it.
    sudo pacman-key --recv-key EC3CBE7F607D11E663149E811D1F0DC78F173680
    sudo pacman-key --lsign-key EC3CBE7F607D11E663149E811D1F0DC78F173680
    sudo pacman-key -u
    Step 4: Try to install pm2ml, signed by Xyne, and use makepkg to verify that yaourt is NOT the problem. This will not work.
    yaourt -G pm2ml
    cd pm2ml
    makepkg -s
    ==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg...
    pm2ml-2014.12.31.tar.xz ... FAILED (unknown public key 1D1F0DC78F173680)
    Step 5: Check that I'm not crazy.
    sudo gpg --homedir=/etc/pacman.d/gnupg --verify pm2ml-2014.12.31.tar.xz.sig
    gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir '/etc/pacman.d/gnupg'
    gpg: assuming signed data in 'pm2ml-2014.12.31.tar.xz'
    gpg: Signature made Tue 30 Dec 2014 05:55:07 PM MST using RSA key ID 8F173680
    gpg: Good signature from "Xyne. (key #3) <[email protected]>" [full]
    Step 6: Import Xyne's key into my local GnuPG keyring, which I should definitely not have to do:
    gpg --recv-key EC3CBE7F607D11E663149E811D1F0DC78F173680
    gpg --lsign-key EC3CBE7F607D11E663149E811D1F0DC78F173680
    makepkg -s
    Makepkg will work at this point. I have tried this three times, and I can duplicate it 100% of the time.
    Is my configuration messed up, or can anybody else duplicate this? I'm wondering if the gpg-agent since GnuPG 2.1 doesn't switch home directories or something and refuses to see a new key even though I just imported it? It seems like the key and the signature are both clearly valid, but I can only get Xyne's package to verify using makepkg if I import his key into my ~/.gnupg keyring.
    Again, I could be totally stupid, but I legitimately do think there might be a bigger issue.
    Thanks.

    Okay, sorry! I didn't know that was intended behavior. That actually makes me a lot happier.
    It just didn't seem intuitive to me that I would have to add the developer's public key to my own keyring rather than to pacman's keyring. Almost guides I had previously read previously said I needed to use pacman-key to import the public key.
    This thread can be marked as solved, because there is no issue.

  • Jedi Academy 1.01e Multiplayer Freezes iMac - Possible issue with Leopard?

    Just migrated everything over from my old iMac G4 17" to the new Intel iMac, Jedi Academy single and multiplayers seem to be freezing my iMac hard. I have downloaded the UB patch (1.01e) from Aspyr, made sure all Apple software was up to date, done a clean install after clearing out all the prefs/.plists for it and it will still lock up.
    This occours trying to run Multiplayer, it gets to either 'Awaiting Snapshot' or just joins the server and the system freezes.
    I've been working with Aspyr's technical support, initially they could not get the problem to happen in single player but when they tried multiplayer they experienced the same problem of it freezing the computer. They have passed it on to their Dev team as a possible Leopard problem but figured I'd mention this here as well in case other users have this issue.

    Cannot say, can you use Real Player until it is solved, or flip for mac?

  • Possible Issues with Duplicate Training Database?

    Hello everyone!
    First off, please forgive my ignorance! I've only been working with databases lightly over the last couple of years, and thus far only with MySQL and MS SQL.
    Recently the company I work for purchased a new software package that required Oracle. We purchased a copy of Oracle 10.2 as part of the deal and the company that sold it to us, and set it up for us, has denied us dev access to the database, on our server, because it would expose their underlying data schema. I wasn't in change when the decision was made and we spent the money on a crippled copy of Oracle, but that's in the past.
    Because we don't have dev access to Oracle we're unable to create a training database for this new software in house. We have to pay this company to create a test environment for us. I was told it would cost $500, until the tech said he was going to install Oracle on our training server.
    At this point I stopped him and said at $500 they'll either be breaching their licensing agreement, or giving us a free copy! The other possibility is that they were going to install this and then just bill us for Oracle later on, despite quoting the job at $500.
    The tech who was about to do the installation went to check with someone more senior and then returned to inform me that installing the second copy of Oracle would indeed require more licensing fees.
    This verified what I already had told him, and I said we want a training database on our existing Oracle server, and then training copies of the new software can just point to that training database.
    He now needs to take time with the more senior technicians while they're "analyzing the existing database server/environment". He was trying to talk me out of installing a training database on the existing server, and instead buying another copy of Oracle, which I believe to be a total cash grab. He had no solid reason why he couldn't do it, but refused to anyway and said he needs to talk to a more senior tech (the same one who said that yes, we'll need to purchase a second copy of Oracle rather than use a second database on the existing server).
    So, these two databases, one live data and one a duplicate of that live data used in a training environment where changes won't be reported against, should be able to exist peacefully should they not? The same version of the same software accessing the same data from the same server, just a different database, shouldn't present any problems with my limited knowledge of Oracle! There will only ever be maybe 5 connections to the training environment at a time, and the server should be able to currently handle twice as many users connected as it's current maximum (edit: expected) load.
    I know this wouldn't be a problem with MySQL, or MS SQL, and Oracle is a superior database package, so can anyone think of any legitimate reason that might back up the claim that having that duplicate database will be a problem?
    Thanks in advance for any guidance here!

    Thank you very much John!
    We have a per user license and I don't expect our training needs to exceed even a half dozen people at a time to start (A small, significant, fraction of the initial user base). In the future we can easily recommission other resources, or purchase more. The whole project is in the earlier stages anyway, so the needs are smaller now (but the money we spend on licensing could be recurring).
    I understand the requirements angle from a server perspective, but those points you brought up drill down into what I need to know a bit more.
    I doubt rollback segments would be necessary, I was thinking more along the lines of scheduled replication/duplication of the production database on a weekly or monthly basis, just to keep the material at least somewhat up to date.
    I also don't think temporary table space would put much load on storage either, at least in the long run.
    RAM isn't much an issue with a 64 bit version running either, for our needs now at least.
    My instinct, and what you mention about even potential impact of altering the existing database schema enforces this, is that it's basically safer to create a separate database, but less resource intensive to alter the schema of an existing Oracle database to suit training needs (in this situation, maybe, making some vague assumptions about software probably), if done correctly (although still carrying risks).
    I do wish I had the time to read up on this more now, and I will as soon as I have the time.
    I probably will download 10g express edition to familiarize myself a bit more now, as soon as I come up with an application for it, to at least try out whatever I read.
    Thanks for the advice

    Hi Rick,
    I didn't notice any issues yet but I am actually able to record audio and record screen interactions now on my Vista 64-bit system.. The screen recordings are still a little buggy since it wont actually create the captions like it would do on a 32-bit system, but I'll try and reinstall Captivate and see if that helps out.

  • Some refurb 1G questions and possible issues

    Hello everyone - my wife bought me an early Christmas gift and I got it yesterday. She got me the Touch 1G 8gig model from the refurb store here on Apple. She is a diehard Mac user and has an old Nano she loves. Any way I have already had a few issues (possibly)
    1) Is the sound quality of the stock headphones really bad or do I have a bad set? The sound quality is just horrible. It just sounds flat, no bass, no treble, and just bad overall. Playing with the built in EQ settings did not help at all. I just got more distortion.
    2) The wifi seems incredibly slow. At first I thought it was due to browsing a page with too much graphic content, but even just browsing basic sites it seems a lot slower than the Touch 2G I played with at Best Buy (I dont have any local Apple Stores). Is this normal as well? I thought it would be fun to take the Touch vs. one of our laptops on short trips for basic wifi browsing, but this is almost painfully slow.
    3) I tried docking it today for the first time with a cheap little JVC speaker powered speaker. I got no sound at first. I had to fiddle with the docking several times. It works perfectly with my wife's Nano. Once I got sound to work, it froze on me on the 10th or 12th song. Froze as in it just paused on its own mid song. Once I hit play it did start again. I have not tried it again since.
    The first problem I can deal with by getting better headphones. I hope it is just the headphones that sound horrible and not the unit. My wife has her Nano in the car so I can't compare side by side yet. The second issue is an annoyance and I would like to know if the 2G Touch is really faster of if I just imagined it. The third issue bothers me. I dont like things freezing up on me when they are brand new (well brand new refurb).
    With BF coming up, I assume retailers will be running some deals on the 2G touch. If I upgrade to the 2.0 or 2.1 software for the refurb, it isnt much cheaper than a new 2G model. Are the 2G models any better with the above issues?
    thanks all for the help-
    sm

    I dont have a local Apple Store unless the Best Buy kiosk counts (which I stated in my original post). Closest real one is 2 hrs away. They were supposed to be building one here this year, but nothing came of it yet.
    I am trying to avoid shipping it back if possible if it is something that is either normal or easily solvable.

  • Possible issue with MMS and Android

    Hi Mark
    Yes I can send MMS no problems at all to any other handset and network and get them in return, but a bunch of my work colleagues who have the handset on this network have the same issue, they didn't realise until I had mentioned it. Sometimes I get the message but it comes up on the screen to download but it won't let me.
    The reason I posted was to check how widespread this is, since this handset and O.S is new to BT.

  • Possible Issue with Latest Office 2001 Update

    In the last few days my MB Air mid-2013 with Mavericks did an Office 2011 update to Version 14.3.9. Today I used it for the first time and Excel crashed each time I tried to use it. To get the job done I had to revert to the earlier build (version 14.3.8) from a backup and that appears to work normally.
    I don't know if this is an issue with Mavericks or if the update to 14.3.9 would have crashed with ML, too. Nor do I know if Word would have crashed since I had to get the task in Excel done before an appointment.

    Apparently cannot edit the above. Title should have Office 2011, not Office 2001

  • Verizon FIOS ActionTel WiFi Router (possible issue)..WEP enabled

    I don't broadcast my SSID.
    I have WEP turned on.
    I have noticed that sometime, when I come back into range..I am not able to "reconnect" even though the password and everything else seems to be fine.
    I setup the iPhone settings with "normal" WEP (not the hex/ascii version).
    Sometimes, it comes back..it just takes a while...other times, 5-10mins can go by; and by then I hit sleep->wake, and it finds it ok.
    When I go to "choose wifi network"..I see it pop-up, I try to select it..and get "Unable to connect to <wifi location name>"
    Thoughts/ideas? Anyone else having this issue with FIOS router?

    Ok, I've been on the phone with APPLE 4 times, and got it to work, but then my computers didn't want to get online...
    This happened with getting the Nintendo Wii working too...
    _--------------- SOLUTION -------------------_
    1) Push and hold for 15 seconds, the red RESET button in the back of the ActionTec router
    2) After it has been reset, it will now use the WEBKEY and ESSID on the white stickers on your router (on bottom of router)
    3) You will have to use these to reset your computer and iPhone settings.
    4) Restart your computers, and re-enter new info from ActionTec Router bottom stickers
    5) iPhone - Home - Settings - Wi-Fi - See your ActionTec Router now (using the ESSID from sticker) Choose Router
    6) Choose blue circle arrow button
    7) Choose PASSWORD
    8) Choose HEX or ASCII
    9) Enter in your WEB password from bottom of ActionTec Router
    10) Click JOIN
    11) This should now work.... Be sure that the network is full and you see first the mobile strength, AT&T, and then the WiFi signal strength...
    Now, it works for my computers, Wii, DS, iPhone, Laptop....
