Garbled graphics

Has anyone had graphic glitches with their iPad 2?
I was play GT Racing this morning with my son. The game kept crashing on my iPad 2 with odd garbled graphics - strange colors and random triangular shapes. Much like when a logic board goes bad on a Mac.
It only happened in the GT game so I wonder if is a game glitch or a bad graphic chip. Is there a way to test this?
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, uninstalling and closing other apps didn't work.
I did check the GT Racing app in the app store and it appears others have the same problem. Probably safe to assume it is a game glitch instead of a hardware problem since it doesn't have the problem with any other app.
Thanks again for the suggestion.

Garbled Graphics every once and a while on FF 4.0

I have been using FF 4.0 for a few days now. Every once and a while while browsing, all of a sudden the graphics will freeze up and then all of the menus on FF are garble graphics (see screenshot link below). This only seems to happen when Pandora radio is open. It takes a browser exit and reopen to clear the issue. However the garbling appears to continue in right-click context menus in windows explorer. It did not happen under the same circumstances with FF 3.6.

Thanks,

I also notice that the context menu garbling happens to Acrobat as well, even after acrobat is closed. It takes a computer restart to get rid of it altogether.
Also, the screenshot link above is incorrect, it is:

Open source ati driver -- garbled graphics

I'm trying to run an openGL game (Uplink-demo) with the open source ati driver, but I just get strange garbled graphics. It's not the card or the game either -- I installed opensuse 10.2 on this same box the other day and had no problems running the game. Even XGL worked surprisingly. But opensuse is a pig next to Arch though so I'm hoping for a fix Here is the result:
Help! :S
BTW, I can't run the closed source fglrx driver because my card is no longer supported (Radeon 9000, rv250 chipset). The legacy drivers ATI provides don't seem to install with Xorg 7.2.

Nope, no dice. By any chance, does this game load ok for you?

If you tried the fglrx package first did you reinstall libgl or is it libdri? The exact one is in the wiki something having to do with them being the same name but different internally so one is downloaded based on which driver you have...or something like that.
Also do you have the right mesa? This is am totally guessing you do have. But I received weird issues once very similar to yours when I tried to do things with out mesa...
Well, I've never installed fglrx on this box since I already knew about the incompatibility regarding ati cars older than r300. So that's taken out of the equation. Is there a different mesa? I only see one in the packages.
On a whim, I decided to try a fresh install of Arch. I installed xorg, xf86-video-ati, and gnome + extras -- I basically got the same result. So it's either something missing in my xorg config or I'm missing some gl lib. I hope. Dunno
Thanks for the replies guys!

Garbled Graphics From Startup

Hi,
When I try to boot my intel imac i get garbled graphics, right from the instant the screen lights up. Its as if the normal screen is overlaid with a bitmapped blue haze, it gets past the grey apple (still with haze) but will get no further seaming to freeze on an all blue screen, on which the mouse is still visible and working. Once when i hit the power button to restart, it inadvertently slept, and upon wake-up i could make out the login screen but with heavy graphic distortion. The graphics would not respond though. I've zapped the pram and tried to boot from the osx cd. Is there anything else to check before i send it for repair?
Thanks, Mike
iMac Intel 2x2Ghz 2Gb RAM Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I took it into my local genius bar and the guy there zapped the pram several times in succession, on each repeat the screen got a little better until, voila, back to normal! I suspect some dodgy code got stuck in a buffer somewhere and it needed a good few zaps to sort it. Problem Solved

Macbook pro core i7 high res anti-glare screen garbled graphics

My two month old macbook pro consistently (once every day or two) produces a garbled up screen after using it for a few hours. The only way to resolve this is to restart the computer. I've talked with apple support and have gone into the store for help and so far everyone is clueless and offer no real advice. I can't take a screenshot on the machine once this occurs, the picture just comes up blank, but I did take pictures with my cellphone.

Has anyone else had a similar issue and is this most likely a graphics hardware error?

Drm31078, it sounds like you've made up your mind what the problem is and decided to wait for it to fix itself. In light of ryanfitz's experience, which now indicates that the problem occurs when using each of his two GPUs, I question your conclusions that there's a graphics switching problem and that Apple's basic software is at fault, simply because there are thousands of other users with the same machine and the same Apple software who aren't seeing the same behavior. Therefore, I recommend that you run the extended Apple Hardware test repeatedly in hopes that it will eventually detect an intermittent hardware fault, bearing in mind that if there's a fault in the video cable or the LCD panel, AHT can't and won't detect it. And I recommend showing your pictures to a Genius or an authorized service technician for evaluation. A single Apple employee's failure to detect a hardware problem is not conclusive evidence that none exists, and I don't think there's any good reason to dismiss that possibility out of hand on the basis of what you've seen and heard so far.

Z68 GD-65 (G3) Random Garbled Graphics

I just built my new rig and I'm having a peculiar, although (at least at the moment) not all that severe problem.
The rig seems to work just fine so far. Been stable through what stress testing I've done. I'm currently just running it at stock to make sure things are ok. However, occasionally when I boot, my screen is garbled, for lack of a better word. You can still sorta see what's on the screen, it's just all funky and rearranged. This seems to only happen after I've left the BIOS and saved some changes. The changes themselves don't seem to be the problem, because I can go back into the BIOS, leave everything the same as the last boot (which was problematic) and it'll load just fine without the graphics issue. I've yet to see this issue happen on a normal reboot (without entering the BIOS), so it leads me to the motherboard, although it could just be coincidental so far.
It's one of those hard to nail down problems, because it happens so infrequently. I may try updating the BIOS, but I'm just curious if anybody else has had a similar problem before I go too in depth into trying to troubleshoot it myself.
Rig details:
i5 2500k
8GB GSkill Sniper low voltage DDR1600
MSI Z68 GD-65 (G3)
Nvidia GTS 450
Corsair TX750 V2

System is still pretty fresh, but I haven't seen anything worrying or out of the ordinary in actual operation. Haven't had a lot of time yet on the new build, but it installed windows, tons of runs of wprime, 2 hours of prime95 blend, a couple hours of gaming, and plenty of hours of web browsing all without problem so far.
UEFI is what shipped with it atm, 23.1.
So far the problem appears to be benign, but weird nonetheless. I may have to try using the onboard video and see if it still does it.

Assign resources to all ISA and garbled graphics on boot.....any suggestions?

Subject says it all. I boot up and get the above mentioned error from the LED bracket. If i could see clearly enough i could mess around in the bios.... I just replaced the MOBO, PSU and video card and this is the first attempt at rebooting it with the new components (exact same components just factory new).
UPDATE: I can get it to boot up to windows now but the graphic display is still messed up although i can see when im in windows. When I use an old video card (geforce 2) It works pretty much like normal with no graphic errors. With either video card in I get no LED errors when im finally in windows.
Could the new motherboard and video card with old HDD and winxp loading on it be causing the graphics issues? I will try a fresh install of winxp and see if that fixes it. Until then, any suggestions or comments would be appreciated. Thank you!

Thanks for the replies. All the components i just put in were the same exact components, I just did RMA for replacements because I had a power surge or something and things went bad. Maybe I just got lucky with the maddog crap psu for a year. I did have a thermaltake 420 watt PSU but it caused problems and I tried the maddogg and it worked fine so I assumed it was better quality than thermaltake. Would poor PSU cause the graphics card to display funky? makes since that I put in the small video card and it works fine....maybe ill try putting in the RMA'd thermaltake 420 PSU again. Thanks again
Also...No, I haven't done a clean install of windows yet because I wanted to start up and save some important data from the HDD then I was planning on doing a clean install after that.

G4Ti4400-TD garbled graphics

Ive been playing games now for months on my WindowsXP system with DirectX 8.1. But recently I purchased a game that requires DirectX 9.1. I have installed Microsoft DirectX 9 and now my video wont function with Hardware acceleration turned on. The graphics are a mass of jumbled colors.
I am using Windows XP operating system and I have an MSI manufactured G4Ti4400-TD card. The manual states that DirectX 8.1 and lower is supported.
I figured I needed to update the bios on my video card so I checked MSI Bios site and used the live update utility. No upgrade to my cards Bios was found. Is there a compatability issue with DX9 and is there a driver or bios upgrade that I can get to make my card function?
My video driver is:
nv4_disp.dll
Version: 6.14.0001.4345 (English)
My Video Bios is:
Version: 4.25.00.22.37

Ok I got everything working again and with Direct X9.0 I would like to thank you all for helping me get to the bottom of the problem. In the end I did the following:
Uninstalled video drivers
Installed DirectX 9.0a
Installed the latest Via Hyperion 4 in 1 motherboard drivers
Installed the latest nvidia driver that supports GF4Ti4400the 6.14.0001.4345 driver (didnt work)
Uninstalled video drivers
Installed an older version of the nvidia driver that supports GF4Ti4400: 6.13.0010.4109 (English) THANKS AGE2!

Bizarre garbled graphics in Safari and Finder on i7 glossy hi-res machine

*here's one in safari:*
*and here's one in my finder:*
*is this likely a software issue or a hardware issue?*

OMG! My six-month-old Macbook Pro has been doing the same thing since I bought it. I thought it was just an odd Safari bug, and unfortunately only had two weeks with it in the US before leaving for a country that does not have any Mac repair facilities. It was only then that I realized it had the capability to "migrate" out of Safari to affect the desktop. At this point it requires a restart to be able to make out anything on the screen. If I quit and restart Safari while it is still only "in" Safari that will generally arrest it. It is slightly more likely to occur if a Safari window is open when the computer goes to sleep, especially with a lot of tabs. I haven't seen it arise from any other program, but I don't really have anything more exotic than MS Office installed.
I did a search here when it first happened but didn't find anything. I'm so glad you posted this. I couldn't figure out how I was going to explain it to an Apple repair person without them thinking I'm nuts, because it's not consistently reproducible. I tried taking a screenshot but it ends up only the a shot full of pixellated squares. Now I can show them this thread...

24" iMac screen garbled when using Expose.

Occasionally when I click both sides of the mouse to use the Expose function to see all my open windows the display flickers around and I get a garbled image as shown in the photo. As I move the mouse across the screen it clears up the garbled graphics. It also clears up when I undo the Expose. Happens may 20% of the time. Anyone else have this problem and found out what was causing it?

My 24" iMac also display garbage as same as your picture.
Strangely, it's not consistant. Sometimes at start up time
sometimes when I click the menu bar.
(I wanted post my screen shot but I couldn't)
I can clean up garbage screen when I drug around the
application window. However, it will come back again.
I don't know what's trigger it.
I think this problem happened aftert I update OS with patches.
I'm also want to know the solution.

Mac Book Pro 13" Garbled Display Issue

I got a Mac Book Pro 13" inches a couple of weeks ago, and this morning the first time I turned it on it displayed garbled graphics.
It seems not be a GPU problem as I have connected an external monitor and it works perfectly fine.
I have opened and double checked the connection to the MB and everything seems to be fine.
Any suggestions on what to do or what the problem might be?

[SOLVED] Graphic Corruption with 3D and Wine 1.3.8 + Catalyst 10.11

Hello!
I'm getting graphic corruption with 3D games on my Arch Linux configuration using Wine and Catalyst. Tried World of Warcraft (also with opengl rendering) and Guild Wars - graphics look stretched and teared.
Using ATI Mobility Radeon HD4570.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I get same problem with guildwars in fullscreen when entering character select. I have to ctrl-alt-F1 to tty then back to get rid of the garbled graphics. Then my characters vanishes except for their armor/effects. Going into windowed mode stops the garbling of the graphics but the bodyless avatars remain. There is one error stands out in wine output but can't find anything specific to this error that helps.

Weird graphics in iTunes

I am running iTunes 7.2 on a PowerBook G4 "12(1.5 GHZ-1.5GB RAM) running OSX.4.8 and I have am having a strange intermittent problem. Occasionally after minimizing the iTUnes window, when I go to expand it I get all garbled graphics, with pieces of the desktop mixed in with the iTunes. It is the most bizarre thing i have ever seen, and if music is playing it just keeps on playing. THis does not happen with any other Apps and it has only been doing it since I upgraded to iTUnes 7. It promptly fixes itself if I close and then restart it. Has anyone ever heard of this problem, and or have any idea what it is and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Patrick

This has fixed itself. Must have been a bug that was cleared up with one of the updates.

T400 - serious graphical glitches while Hardware Virtualization is turned on in the BIOS.

While hardware virtualization is enabled in my T400, I'm getting serious graphical glitches (garbled graphics). This happens both when outputting to the T400's monitor or when outputting to an external display.
I actually don't have to do anything special to get the garbling to start - just booting Windows 7 and using it regularly will make it start to glitch.
Help please.

Thank you for that link, it was very helpful.
The 'solution' of course, was far from satisfying (I'm experiencing Type B visual corruption). Especially considering the model I'm using is preconfigured - Lenovo shipped it with a 2GB+1GB DIMM.
It boggles my mind that Lenovo uses a configuration that is not fully compatible with the processor.
I don't find it so odd, most users will never use the virtualization feature. I personally have 3gb in my T500 and have used H-V with the ATI chipset and it works as it should, I've tried it with the Intel GPU and it is garbage but then again.. the intel 4500 is kinda garbage..
