FX 5900 Ripping and tearing of textures

OK, so i've had this card less then a year and i've been dealing with a lot of ripping and tearing of textures in games.
Normally when this happens what type of problem is it?
Is this a video card problem?
Is this a memory problem?
Is this a overclock problem?
Is this a combination problem?
I have the 128 meg fx5900 with out the tv, ect.
This may take more then 1 post to figure out so i am in it for the long haul.
Let me know if you need more information.

'Tearing' is usually due to vsync being disabled - i.e. your graphic card is updating the screen faster than your monitor is refreshing it - if you want high fps, than that's the trade off - either you need a monitor that can handle a higher vsync in the resolution you're currently running, or just enable vsync in your drivers/game (the best suggestion - results in the smoothest display).

  • Trying to restore a photo that is torn, ripped and missing small areas. help please

    I have an older photo of my hubby's mom and all the kids around her but it hasn't been taken very good care of at all and it has rips and tears and some small areas are missing.
    What I have been doing is using Photoshop 5.0 and Full Edit. From there I have been blowing the photo up to 616.87% to 821.05% so I have allot of pixel to see what the heck I am trying to do.
    Then I have been using the Healing Brush Tool with the brush at 2 pixel and the Hardness at 82% and the Spacing at 20%. 0 Angle with 100% roundness and using the stylus wheel. The mode is Normal and for Source it is on Sampled.
    So far I have had wonderful results with the car and his moms hair. For those two things there really isn't much of a color variance. But I am really having trouble with some large tears around faces. With the shadows and such.
    I am especially having a problem with is that some of the pixels in the picture on the edge of the rips are shades of a violet and shades of green.
    This picture is something that I would like to be able to give him for Father's Day and in a frame. I have been working on this in secret for the last few weeks and have made some headway. yay.
    But I really could use some help here. I've been reading just about everything there is on different things that can be done but I hope that it gets somehow easier and more efficient than what I've been doing so far.
    Thanks for the help

    Yes, I second the recommendation for Katrin Eismann's book. She is just great. It's for Photoshop, but you can do about 90% of the stuff in PSE, too.
    EDIT Matt Koslowski has a book on using Elements for restoration, but I can't comment because I've never seen it in person.

  • Mini-DVI port not working: wear and tear?

    I had been happily using the mini-DVI port to play content on TV, using a DVI to Video adapter : plugging and unplugging probably twice a week.
    Now it seems to have stopped, abruptly: no signal at all is reaching the TV. (Adapter still works fine on my MacBook.)
    What are the chances of wear and tear damaging the DVI port? Is this a complicated fix? Any other thoughts? No recent upgrades or updates.
    "About this Mac" reckons it's mirroring fine, so it feels like a hardware thing. Many thanks in advance.

    Hello ewfelton
    It is very possible that the DVI port on the iMac has been damaged from wear and tear, as it's harder to get at than the MacBook.
    I would disconnect everything from the iMac, grab a clean towel and turn it face down on the desk. Then with a magnifying glass and light inspect the DVI port for a broken or bent pin. In the process of inspecting the port your SMC will also be reset, follow the instruction for "How to reset the System Management Controller" when your done.
    If the port seems OK and the SMC reset doesn't get it going use Disk Utility to Repair Disk Premissions and try it again.
    Your local Apple Store or local Apple Service Provider can replace a bad or damaged DVI port.

  • Mini DVI Broken (Wear and Tear?)

    I've been pushing my mid-2007 Mac around for a while and I think its startting to sputter out. Whereas I have other computers I'd like to make my Mac run as long as possible before it goes kaput completely. For instance, its monitor screen is completely broken and unusable. To keep it going, I've been attaching it through a Apple Mini DVI to VGA Adapter to a AOC 23" LCD screen for a while. This has been a suitable replacement until recently. I plug in the adapter, the screen powers up normally, working perfectly for about a second, the computer eminates a high pitched ringing noise, and then the screen goes out as if unconnected unable to read the adapter at all. I'm near certain this problem is with the computer's Mini DVI port and not the adapter or screen. I've tried two adapters and connected the screen to other things. Same problem with other adapters and the screen works with other things. Can it be fixed? Overly costly? Is it possible that the problem is something else? I have literally no screen here so I have only the hardware availible to me at the moment, making things difficult.

    1. First of all, please download ImTOO DVD to iPod Converter at http://www.imtoo.com/downloads/dvd-to-ipod-converter.exe
    2. Install it and open your local DVD by clicking "Add DVD Folder" button under "File" menu.

    4. Set output format: In “Profile” drop down list box, you may select output format. The software allows setting different output formats according to different files.
    Tips: by selecting iPod MPEG-4 Movie format (*.mp4) in “Profile” drop down list box, the software will produce iPod mp4 formats.

    5. Set conversion mode (Optional)
    After selecting certain output format, the right column will show its general standard. By clicking certain settings such as 'Zoom', 'Split', 'Destination' and ‘Title’ etc, you may set it.
    Please note: you can set "Bit Rate" by choosing the rate given, such as "512". Certainly, you can keep all the above options default without any change.

    After a short while, you will get a file that is ready to be played on your iPod. But how do you add it to your iPod? Here is the way:
    1. Please click ‘Open’ button after the conversion is completed.

    Thanks! But when I visit the site recently, I found the program was upgraded. Now it has 2 optimized output formats specially made for iPod 30G and 60G players! Thus it is easier and more convenient to use without complex settings as other software. Try it at http://www.imtoo.com/downloads/dvd-to-ipod.converter.exe
    Another good news: there was a new discount suite ImTOO DVD to iPod Suitethat contains both the DVD to iPod Converter and iPod Movie Converter. It saves newly $20! Hope this can do some help

  • My track pad seems to have lost its strong "click" feel. Is this wear and tear or is there some way I can adjust it to feel the "click" more?

    My track pad seems to have lost its strong "click" feel. Is this wear and tear or is there some way I can adjust it to feel the "click" more?

    downgrading is not supported by Apple and doing so has the potential to brick your device. so, you can't. if you have feed back for the new iOS you can provide that here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Is there an on-screen touch feature that can be purchased to save wear and tear on the home/escape button?

    Is there an on-screen touch feature for iPad 2 that will save wear and tear on the home/escape button?  If so, what's it called and where can I buy it?

    And if you are running iOS 5, you can enable Multitasking Gestures in the General settings. This enables you to quit out of an app by just pinching with four or five fingers. That saves a lot of use of the Home button.

  • What is normal does wear and tear look like on a mac book charger

    My childs school is charging us $80 to replace her charger that stopped working and stated it was her fault it stopped working.  It was a bit frayed at the top but that's it.   The charger was 2 years old when she received it. 

    have a picture?
    80% of wear and tear you cant see ,which is twisting the cable up on the charger and bending it over and over and ruining the copper feeds running thru the rubber coating over the PVC coated sheaths of the copper wire
    So, looking at it often doesnt tell a whole lot.
    if the wires under the rubber look very coiled and twisted, that would be abuse

  • Bootcamp rebooting...wear and tear

    Hi all,
    I'm now 2 weeks into my new macbook pro (i am a PC switcher), and still lovin it. I just wanted to get people's opinions on something.
    I have installed XP using bootcamp for the sole purpose of playing a few games and using 1 online app that requires IE. Other than that, I'm strictly OS X Leopard.
    What are your opinions of the wear and tear on the computer from having to reboot from one OS to another constantly. Constantly being like once a day or once every 2 days. My profession is in electronics, more specifically single board computers used in wireless telecom infrastructure. So i am fairly knowledgeable in this area. I know that "soft" boots are no big deal. As no power is removed from the board. It's just a reset signal to every part on the board. However the stuff i work on doesn't have a harddrive or any mechanical parts like a "computer" does.
    Everytime you reboot the harddrive stops spinning and then restarts along with the optical drive possibly right?
    So chime in please. What's your opinion?

    If it were a problem, Apple would have never made Boot Camp.
    It is not a problem at all.
    I have been doing it for months without any issues.

  • Screensaver wear and tear

    Yes sorry i know this is my second screensaver post today.
    I love screensavers, I think they are great to look at. But, do you all think it causes undue wear and tear on the computer running a graphically advanced screensaver as opposed to one that just shows pictures? I'm currently using Fenetres Volantes (http://objective-cocoa.org/fenetresvolantes/en/index_en.html) which I definitely recommend you all check out. But sometimes when it is running I hear the fans speed up. What do you all think?
    Brett

    No big deal, it's just using more processor power and it gets warm. Not to worry.

  • Wear and tear

    hi
    is there any function module to calculate wear and tear for particular asset?

    Hi,
    this is one of the central functions in the Fixed Asset module ... depreciation calculation. Please regard the SAP Help Portal, there is lots of documentation on this issue.
    To your question: yes, there is of course a function to calculate depreciation, but I would recommend to first try standard reporting as well as standard functions to calculate/display depreciation.

    I new to this 
    I got some music SACD rips and all the files ending .dsf  How I open it?

    double click my domain in the Applications folder in i web
    Just so we're on the same page you mean when you double click on the domain file that's located in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder, right?
    if we're on the same page try the following:
    delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    launch iWeb and try again.
    If that doesn't help continue with:
    move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
    go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    launch iWeb and try again.
