artifact with AA on sounds like a memory issue. either your memory voltage regulator is buggered or your VRAM is corrupt if you are not seeing overheating. RMA tiem.
I removed and reinstalled the VGA Driver, now i can play with AA on (in fact i played BF with 32x) without any problems, only the turning on and off issue sometimes (like 1 time a day). Can this is still be a memory or voltage regulator issue?
