Right, just went to boot up COD4, and when I was at the profile select page, I could see flickering red dots whizzing about. Kind of weird. Any ideas as to what it could be? I solved the problem last time by updating the drivers, but seeing as the 9.5 aren't out yet, I can't. And it didn't seem to solve it in the long run. I think it could be the PSU, but when CPC did a test on the same PSU as me, they said it ran absolutely fine, that was with a quad installed as well as the 2 cards.

Specs:
C2D E8400 @ 3.6Ghz
4Gb Corsair Dominator PC2-8500
DFI LT-X48 T2R
2x 512mb 4870
Coolermaster RealPower M700 PSU

Cheers.

Hmmm, well, I switched the cards around, re-installed drivers, and few presto, works!

Stupid computers.
