R33, I'm also running a 3850HD on my machine, with a 2.2 Athlon 64 and 2 gigs of DDR. Freelancer runs like a dream on my machine @ 1680x1050 with zero problems, so I suspect your card could be faulty.

I will say this though, at least you can troubleshoot and fix your PC due to it being modular in nature hardware-wise and for most DIY'ers the software can be "fixed" as well. The Xbox 360 on the other hand, becomes nothing more than a cute looking doorstop in most cases once you see the "red ring of death". Oh yea, I take it you've fixed your problems R…
