    Hello, I am having problems with RivaTuner. I followed this setup guide for RivaTuner15.7 (only guide I can find for v15.7): http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.aspx?catid=31&threadid=1500237&enterthread=y


    And I get the following colored lines after restart:

    This is how I have it setup before I restart to take effect:

    And then I get those wierd lines. What could be wrong? What other info do you guys need from me? Thanks in advance and apologies if any. Oh yeah, my main concern is to unlock the 16 pipes on my eVga 6800 card.

    So, I should return (RMA it) it? I just purchased it last week and been playing games with it, with no problems. I acutally get good framerate while playing counter strike or day of defeat source.

    How can you with good morality RMA a card that is what you paid for? That's not fair to the vendor.....


    If you softmod or hardmod a card.....it's not the vendor's fault.

    I meant to say return it for a refund in order to buy another card (6800GT) from the same vendor and willing to spend the extra $100 dollars to get the full 16pipes.

    I also read somewhere else you have to be somewhat 'lucky' to receive a batch that will allow you to unlock the pipe's and shaders. If I woulda known that before, I woulda just waited and bought the GT series.

    But I'm not disappointed on the card, it's still good and looks very nice for what you pay for :)
