need ideas

I get this problem whenever i launch a game on my PC


I've tried new drivers, uninstall drivers and reinstall, and soon i'm gonna try my 8 lb sledgehammer.

Any help would be great.

Does it happen on all games? Does it happen as soon as you launch the game (ie in the menu screen)?

Looks like a prob with the graphics card to me. Does the system crash when you get that view?

The only things i would suggest (before the sledgehammer) other than drivers, is play about with the settings, try removing and re seating the card, and also try disconnecting/disabling any extra pci cards you have like sound cards, tv cards etc etc.

Try lower refresh rate and resolution.
What graphics cards have you got?
Is it a high spec game?
Does your system get hot at all?
Are you able to exit to the desktop from that screen? Or do you have to reboot?
