no man it will totaly destroy ur card i dont want that!!!
im just not using that code until IanM will respond to my post let him check it , i do not want in any way to publish something that may or may not destroy your pc.

every time i run the code i must restart the pc cause i see dots like whitenoise all over the screen , im sure its not too much of a problem but i am not sure that it dosent cause a hardware issue.

I'M SCARED RIGHT NOW!!!



Is it even possible to damage graphics hardware (like the screen buffer or sth.) through code/software?!
Well, if it's working again after rebooting then at least you don't have to throw your machine in the junk...

Now the plot thickens, the fps decreases, and the awesomeness goes through the roof.

Well it is possible but usually only if the card you have is rubbish and fries from the work, or they could be badly cooled and accumulate damage over time (like my old laptop did).

If it fixes itself after a reboot then it's probably a driver error and not a hardware one, try reinstalling the drivers.

I wrote an algorithm once and I'm pretty sure that if I ran it the universe would implode in on itself

Hope you get this sorted soon haliop.

naa i dont think its a temptre thing
i just redownloaded drivers from nvidia and not microsoft upadte
and the whitenoise dosent happens again.

i ran battlefield bc2 ad play it for one or two houre with no major fps loss so its not that.. i think its the overall 2D functions in windows 7 , take that give it bad drivers and you get suprizes one after another.,
