blank printscreen, blank render, blank videoscreen

[dominiquelaksmana]

hi good people,

got a problem here. but before that, i am using
q6600 overclocked 3.420 mhz, originally 2.4ghz
8800gts
4gb ram
3gb switch
windows xp 32
24 inches dell ultrasharp 1920x1200 resolution

now, everytime i render a big res, like 2000, sometimes it's not showing at the screen.
so if i moved the vfb window to bottom and pull it again to centre, i can see my image.

if i hit printscreen, since i've been using this 24 inches, it came out blank(plain black). didn't happen with my 17 inches monitor last time.

video screen, also blank, if i open PS, shut it off, Max, Cad 2008(and shut it off after on),
also blank.

i donno what to call this event, but seems like my windows can't refresh it's resource..

anybody experience the same thing ? anything to solve this thing ?

thanks verymuch!

hmm try a lower res and see what happens. see if you have the latest drivers for your 8800gts

[dominiquelaksmana]

appreciated it. but is there any other way to do it rather than lower the resolution ?
i installed the latest driver.

try switching off all the gadgets and things in xp that makes it look pretty.

it's the 3gig switch. Turn it off and screen cap and all that video overlay stuff will work. Lame, I know.

or switch to XP64 or Vista.
