Default Graphics card replacement

Hello

I had to replace my passive MSI GF7600GS as it recently started freezing the
PC when playing GTR2 and FS-X. I had to turn power off to recover. Its 10
months old from Ebuyer, Question is will they detect fault as it sometimes
passed 3dmark05 and was Ok for office/net work. The new GF8600GT works
fine, what do Ebuyer and their likes do in this situation.

Any experience or advise on this issue appreciated

Hugh

Try running the latest atitool on it, and see if it picks up any faults
- there's a useful artefact/stress test tool on there.
