ASUS P5W DH - Problems + Fixes Thread

[Sparx]

Sorry to butt in here but I am having my first real problem with my P5wdh DX

I put a HR-03 heat sink on my Ati x1900xtx today and all was fine until this evening.

I was checking some digital images and portions of the images are black.

I double checked the cooler for shorts to the card and can see none.

So I put the card in the lower Pcie slot and the images are showing perfectly.

Went back to the top Pcie slot (being sure the card was fully in the slot) and I have the blackened areas on digital images again. I reinstalled the ati drivers with no change.

Again went into the lower slot and the images are perfect.

Has the board gone bad?
Let me know if you have any thoughts please and thanks.
Should have just left the damn noisy factory cooler on the 1900! I had a perfect system. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Edit: Problem solved by going into ATI Cat Control Center and resetting the GAMMA thingy. God knows I hate ATI drivers and products.
No shame on the mighty ASUS P5WDH DX! Damn great molther board!
