    Hey everyone, this has been an ongoing issue for me, but I had hoped that it was just an issue of old drivers. However, I just updated to Gary's vBIOS, BIOS 211, and the 10.8 Catalyst Drivers. Whenever things fade to black or fade in from a black screen, I get tons of green squares that pop up in that space. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Should I RMA? Thanks!

    That does not sound good.... Only during fade in/outs? Nowhere else?

    I just checked again. It also shows green artifacts when things move on a black surface. If anyone has played SCII, during the first campaign cutscene, when the prisoner's face is first shown, he walks from left to right. There are little green pixelly squares around his face and he leaves behind a trail that lingers for 5 seconds or so. If anyone knows how to take screenshots during the cutscene, I'd be glad to show you.
