<p>Hi... i checked the sticky's and stuff but saw nothing about this so I thought I'd just post it up and see what happens.</p><p> I have an issue that seems to happen in certain zones, Thundering Steppes being the most common. It started just before the new patch came into play. I would be in a zone and suddenly i'd turn round and a big grey polygon would be stretching right across my screen from a far and distant point that I can't see. It always comes from one direction and looks like it attaches itself to an object in the game world.</p><p>I did what any sane person would do and updated my graphics drivers. This has only made the problem more common and I find myself logging in and out to resolve the issue 2 or 3 times a night.</p><p>There is also a side issue where little bits of the UI and the target frames will look slightly corrupted as a result of the polygoning.</p><p> Please Help!!!</p>

That's a sign of a failing or overheating video card. I suggest running a scan on your video card -- this can be performed by running ATITool (yes, it also works on nVidia cards) for about 30 minutes in its "Scan for Artifacts" mode. You can get ATITool at <a href="http://atitool.techpowerup.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">atitool.techpowerup.com</a>. Alternatively, you can use the Video Card Stability Test, which can be found at <a href="http://freestone-group.com/video-card-stability-test.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">freestone-group.com</a>.
