Hi guys ,

I hope this is the right place to post this.

All of a sudden I was on desktop and my screen flashes black and you can just see the startbar, and mouse is frozen and screen flashes weird colors every 5 seconds.

Never had any problems with Catalyt Control Center Before  but now i cant even run it to run my faces, tryed reinstalling it more than once with different drivers and doesnt fix it.

I can run my computer with ending CCCs process on startup before it runs, I need help to figure this out as I need fans constantly high for gaming. ( Using HD4850 )

Is my graphics car dead?

Got another machine to try the card on ?
Or even try booting from a live CD such as Ubuntu and see if it has any issues with the video card.

Sounds like a hardware fault when you see flashes of weird colours.
