    Dear all,

    I am new to the forum and after reading most of the previous post around this forum and the internet, I found that I am not the only with problem with the Go 7900GS.

    I have a Dell Inspiron 9400, it has been nearly a year when problems started to arise.
    I have I8kfanGUI installed to monitor the GPU temperature.
    Under normal use, the temp usually rise to around 45-50.

    When I start to play games, the temp goes up, till it get to around 55-60, artifact start to appear, once it has passed 60s, the blue screen of death appear.

    Upon restarting, while loading into windows, lots of little dots appear on the Bios screen and the window loading screen....

    Has anyone else got any similar problem at such low temperature or is it just me?
