I was playing Far Cry 2 the other, and the framerate went from good2bad2good over and over, i then realized, the card wasn't connected to the power supply, and now, all other games are running poorly.. Installed bfbc 2 earlier and had major graphics issues, (all sortsa funny colours flashing where explosions were happening. Will the latest nvidia drivers fix this, or've i completely damaged my card for good? Using a 9600 GT btw.

HOWEVER IT IS RECOMMENDE3ED THAT if any color/funny things occur you should upgrade power supply; whats ur power supply? did you upgrade it? AND WHO INSTALLED THAT CARD? WAS THERE ANY P[OWER SUPPLY CABLE {WITH CURRENT } THAT HE/SHE FORGOT TO PLUG-IN? IS IT A BRANDED PC?
