Using the driver you just got try defualting everything. I had a problem sort of like yours, my screensaver was terribly pixelated, and showed 3 of the same image. When i defaulted the settings everything was normal again.

oh lol.... It doesn't matter anymore anyway I fixed it

I opened it up and touched the card and it was really hot (and now I have a burn mark on my finger

) So I turned it on while it was opened up and the fan wasn't spinning so I jus got that spinning again so everything is cool

hehe literally.... Thanks for the help anyway guys
