Is something wrong with my graphics card. GT 330M? Help

[chrispholt]

Hi,
Last night I was editing a panoramic, so it was a large file if that is anything to do with it.

However every time I zoom into the image got scrambled. As the screen shots show.

Could someone tells me if this is a know problem or has it happened to you?

Thanks.

BTW I havent noticed anything like this on other applications. And the MBP is a 2 month old 15" i5 2.4ghz 4gb ram and 500gb seagate momentous XT

Hmm.. since it's localized to Photoshop I'd be more apt to blame Photoshop. I would pop in the Apple Applications Install Disc 2 into the drive, restart while holding D, and run those tests. It should show any hardware problems.

Agreed. A problem with a graphics card wouldn't pick and choose where to distort your desktop. I'd try the reinstall as well or possibly its a damaged file.

Don't reinstall, try making another account first.

Thanks,

Do you mean reinstall the software or OS. I just reinstalled the OS as I replaced the HDD.

I think I did it right...
I am quite savvy on windows however I have just turned to Mac .

If I reinstall Photoshop will it solve the problem?


Thanks again
