This has been going on for a while on and BFG is unable to help me.
I have updated all drivers for my computer after formating and still no go.
Oddly this only happens in Halo (no prob in BF2).
Here are some screens:

I see you paid to go up to 11" in length...

PS: The card is 11" long.

Umm...I think...:rolleyes:

It was prettly long and pricey ;)
 
I made a poor attempt at a joke, never mind that. Seems like a driver issue with D3D.
