So, i my new graphics card arrived today... i installed it and everything seemed to work fine... until i actually started a game.
My new card seems to hang when the 3D-map opens up (in Civ), at it happens everytime: The music might go on playing for a while, but the screen says: No Connection or something like that.
I figured, my CPU is not the strongest, being still single-core (Athlon 64 3700+). And the package says pretty much dual core only (i didnt see the package, before it arrived, and i am pretty sure, it didnt say anything like that on the site), but i guess thats not entirely true...
Well, the card is a Gainward HD3850, but all ATI-cards are the same, pretty much, right ? - and i read about people using a 3850 on a single-core system...
Anyone heard of the problem / had it ?
PS: I did the usual stuff of course - latest drivers, both MoBo and GraCa, DirX...
