Just been playing a game and this started happening, it makes the screen skip and jump. You can hear the error noises in the video a few seconds apart, you can just make it out from the music. It happened when I was playing Witcher 2... what is it? do i need to sent the computer back I just got it less than a week ago

updated both and problem still persists, it occurs when playing games and even when game is then closed it persists for a while

Hi David, as suggest on the phone, please try downloading and installing the following drivers for you VGA and Audio:

Video Driver: http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/win7-winvista-64bit-280.26-whql-driver-uk.html

Audio Driver: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/misc/audio/Realtek_Audio_V51006251_V6016251_Windows.zip

Download and install them both, reboot afterwards and hopefully this will get us a little further.

Do they not answer the phone at this time been waiting 10 mins or more, my first experience I have to say with pcs was sh*t... Programmes don't work, graphics card is faulty, graphics card parts stuck out and catches on fan when I first set up so had to push wires about, no idea where to plug side panel fan in either so had to ask here... had to get new monitor too as old one would flicker on this computer unlike old one
