Watch the first 50 minutes of Skyrim if you dare
The first 50 minutes of Skyrim, in three videos, is below the break, courtesy of Ve3tro. We haven't watched it, because we don't wish to be spoiled on anything TES V related until we pick our copy up at midnight. Hell, we've even gone dark on Twitter to keep from seeing too much. However, if you are feeling brave, head on below. If you are more interested in screenshots, Eurogamer has a ton. Thanks, Reece.

Tom Cruise Looks Ready For A Fight In First Official Look At Jack ReacherBack in April, while in Las Vegas attending the annual event known as CinemaCon, I had the pleasure of seeing the first ever footage from the upcoming Jack Reacher, Christopher McQuarrie's adaptation of Lee Child's One Shot starring Tom Cruise.

The Wildlife Conservation Society and partners signed an agreement this spring that will safeguard some 80,000 acres of intact forest in Guatemala in the heart of the sprawling Maya Biosphere Reserve that serves as a gateway to the renowned archaeological site of El Mirador.
Spanning nearly five million acres, the Maya Biosphere Reserve in Petén, Guatemala is home to not only some of the worlds most important archaeological sites but also diverse ecosystems with a vast array of flora and fauna. The agreement includes the enforcement of bans on hunting of jaguar, puma, ocelot, margay, tapir, howler monkey, spider monkey, scarlet macaw, ocellated turkey, harpy eagle, and other endangered wildlife.
In the past few decades, the Maya Biosphere Reserve has faced growing threats from human activities including illegal logging, slash and burn agriculture, and ranching in protected areas, along with drug trafficking, poaching, and looting of Maya artifacts.

The Bedford
Online Reservations
Dinner was delicious - we had the chicken with bread pudding and roasted halibut. Very fresh and flavorful. Really enjoyed the rich and delicious fresh pea soup - it was outstanding. Service was great. Noise level high.
Made reservations for a much needed date night and was very pleased we did. When we left there was a line out the door. I think it's much easier to have dinner then stick around for late night drinks and mingling. I accidentally dropped my ID and debit card on the floor in the lounge area and it was still there on Monday. The manager responded to my message quickly when I inquired about it. The food is a bit pricey, but the atmosphere makes up for it. We were able to have a quiet intimate dinner and then transition to a more energetic music filled bar area.
Finally made it to The Bedford after many unsuccessful attempts. It is a beautiful space, carved out of a vintage bank basement. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with cozy seating areas and a great bar. Our meal was a 10. Our party was 4 adults, enjoyed wine, appetizers, 4 entrees and the entire "side dish" menu. Every dish was excellent, including the doughnut holes for dessert. I highly encourage you to "break into" The Bedford and reward yourself with an outstanding dining or cocktail experience.
Had a great evening with my date. Very happy we chose this place .
Title = my review.Title = my review.Title = my review.
I can't speak highly enough of this amazing restaurant. The food is some of the best I have ever had and being from NYC that is a tough thing to do. The setting is beautiful, an old bank vault. The service was absolutely the best I have ever experienced anywhere.
Started with an 8p dinner on Saturday when it was starting to perk up. The group really enjoyed Bedford. My cocktail - Polish Mule - was a great start. Our server & asst. servers were super!! The split pea soup was a fav of mine but the steak tartare could be improved (the overly salty chips it was served with didn't mask the blandness nearly enough). The group raved about the donut holes. After dinner we moved to the bar area. There is lots of seating but the music is obnoxiously loud. Turning it into an evening of yelling at the person seated next to you just to be heard at a whisper. Fine if it was a dance club but lounge atmosphere was at odds. I'll continue to host friends who love to "see & be seen" at the Bedford.
had a great time. food was fantastic. service was impeccable. place was not busy at all on a tuesday night, and so the noise level was very low and was perfect for the blind date that i was on.
The dinner and atmosphere couldn't have been nicer!
Excellent place for those looking to enjoy a secluded bar, or meet up with friends. Fantastic ambience, food, and service. We will be going many more times in the future. It's on our list to take out of town visitors as well. Check out the vault lounge area.
Loved the way restaurant was decorated. The service was outstanding especially the staff for refilling our water glasses and removing our plates once we were finished. The oysters were very good especially liked the 2 sauces they gave us to put on them. However, we didn't really like the octopus appetizer. We thought the watercress sauce tasted like grass $ ruined the dish - not good. The trout special was very tasty & the lamb meatballs had a nice spice to them. I had the Classic St Germain drink - it was quite nice. I could drink them all night! Overall we thought the restaurant was good & would go back again.
Soup was fresh and yummy. Salad and sides delicious
Since it's easy to reach by blue line, from Division stop there was no signage, no nothing until I called the host to guide us there. Located in basement of bank (the top was CVS!), it feels like in old movie. Previous history as a bank was really interesting. Stairs lead to downstairs was decorated nicely. The lighting were pretty dark because they have a great bar and you can see right away they are made for late-night chillin' with friends. Menu does have short choice but good. They made me mocktails with bartender's "secret" ingredients, pretty fun and interesting. The food come in timely manner. If you go there around 5 or 6 pm, nobody really there since people start to hang out around 7.30 or 8ish. A must try!
As mentioned above, they have great fries! Fish was tasty, but a bit light considering the price. They have a good beer selection, and of course, the coolest thing about the place was the vault...
The Bedford is a unique neighborhood treat. Having dinner in a old Bank Vault is too cool. Loved all the old safety deposit boxes still in place and saving part of the original floor is priceless. Ladies, those doors on the stalls, were actually the doors to the safety deposit box privacy rooms! My family has lived in the neighborhood for over 60 years, and as a child I used to go to the former bank, so this was also a trip down memory lane. The food was quite good, very nice wine list, and desert is not to be missed. Friendly, courteous staff made our visit even more pleasant. Great for a special ocassion or just a nice dinner out.
Based on some past reviews we had low expectations for the food, however; everything was quite good! We started in the bar with the cheese appetizer and drinks. The St. Germaine w/ champagne was delicious and refreshing and the cheese platter was excellent. Dinner was in a separate room that was fairly noisy but fine to still carry on conversation. I had the asparagus salad and the scallops. Both were super good and my husband was pleased w/ his chicken. Dessert was OK. We weren't overly impressed with the bank vault - kind of smelled actually - but overall it was a good experience and I'd recommend The Bedford.
Downstairs in the old bank you walk into ... the old bank. But it is so much more! Admire the safe-deposit boxes in the lounge. Gawk at the vault door. Absorb the lovely setting that the Bedford has created. Christie was our charming waitress. They use a team approach to attending to your every need. Water glasses never go unfilled. Appetizers and entrees are wonderful in variety and preparation. You will notice attention to detail with regard to silverware. The dining room can get a bit loud. Thankfully the background music is soft enough to as not compete with conversation. Easy to get to from the Division Street stop on the Blue Line. Treat yourself and give it try. You'll look far and wide to find a more unique setting.
Everything was good to great, but nothing was outstanding - food, drinks, hostesses, wait staff, anything else you might think of. The only striking, memorable part was the bank vault, which made the experience special in spite of the plainness of the other elements. It's good as a place to go be social, to focus on the other members of your party and their conversation.
We came with a group of friends for my boyfriend's birthday to enjoy the live jazz music that they offer on Wednesday nights. The place has been on our list to try for a very long time. Everyone in our group had a great time and loved the place. The decor and the energy are wonderful and the food was great. Our server was wonderful and had great recommendations. He even brought us out a little taste of sparkling wine because we had a bit of a wait after we sat down. All around great night and a great place! We will definitely be back. My only complaint was that the service in the lounge area was very slow and not very friendly. We waited about 15 minutes just for menus and at least a half hour before we were able to get a drink.
You must try this unique restaurant and be sure to give yourself time to have cocktails in the vault. Extra time is needed to adjust for the dark ambiant lighting, but well worth the experience! Great food, and very unusual decor. Located in the basement level of a old bank, the lounge is situated in a real safety deposit vault, and the surrounding decor is all bank vault compartments and very cool. Food selection was nice, and presentation was very trendy. Large portions, and priced appropriate for the food selections. Wonderful bar selections too.
I am exited to share my review! It was a bank so the vault is amazing and we were seated nearby but the pictures on the wall are just as cool. Our waiter, Taylor T., was the best waiter we had on our 4 day visit to Chicago. He was personable, intelligent, patient and offered his opinions They were out of the champs I wanted and allowed me to sample a different brand. He offered his favorite dishes and even told us how to make bacon powder (which is in the deviled eggs). The chicken with summer squash risotto was so delicious I wanted seconds. My only complaint is that the restaurant was not busy at 6p.m. and they sat another group near us. It was slightly distracting. I really hope i have an opportunity to go back to The Bedford ASAP!!
Great atmosphere with a good selection of wine, entrees and desserts. Would definitely recommend!
The dining menu is rather limited, but every dish I've had at the Bedford has been delicious. I love their cocktails and their late-night menu (including the "boozy milkshake") is to die for. Great decor, the fact that you can dine inside the giant safe and you can see all of the safe-deposit boxes makes the place seem so cool and retro. Definitely a good date spot, and they do have larger tables for group gatherings, but I'd recommend going early because it gets PACKED after about 7:30 pm.
Food was delicious but the portions was small, especially the scallops. Friend said her chocolate martini was the best she ever had.
My wife and I usually find time to get to the Bedford when we are in Chicago. We've always had a memorable experience. It is a little special due to the marvelous, interior design and lighting, not to mention the bank vault cocktail area. At the Bedford, there is a great balance between casual and dressy. The food is always wonderful with creative flavors, textures, color combinations and ingredients are always fresh. The pan fried trout ( of which my wife has had many times being from Minnesota) and the pork belly we had were "melt in your mouth" tender. The accompaniments were well chosen, various textures, sweet, sour and savory, allowing for self assembly of tasty mouthfuls.
The service ambiance food and cocktails are all consistently excellent
Had an amazing night at the Bedford! Would do it again any day!
Bank vault turned into an awesome restaurant, lounge, bar. Not your typical place. My Grandma used to have one of the safety deposit boxes. Definitely worth checking out if you like to see places reused.
Fantastic overall experience thanks to great service but a few things to note when it comes to the food. The crab dip is phenomenal but shrimp cocktail was underwhelming. The broth for the mussels was delicious but the mussels themselves were not the best in town. The octopus & bean salad was shy on flavor but has the foundation to be a great dish. The pork belly and scallop entrees were extremely good and I would have them again in a hear beat! Lastly, the slated caramel pot de creme has a great flavor but the marshmallow on top needed to be melted a bit more so it could be cut into with a spoon and the creme itself was a bit gritty and not smooth like a typical pot de creme.
A very delicious and splendid evening. A great place to take my out of town visitor.
Fun atmosphere (inside an old bank vault), great beer list and outstanding cocktails. The service was amazing...the waiter was very patient in working with our group to ensure we had a great experience. The food was good but very salty, still worth trying but expected a little more for the price.
I brought my visiting family here for dinner on a Saturday night. We started with a complimentary champagne toast and it really set the tone for the whole night. Our waiter, Dante, let us relax and was also attentive when we needed something. Food was great, all 6 of us ordered different dishes and were very happy. The menu is the perfect blend of concise and pleasing to all. It left my out of town guests very impressed. I would recommend the booths for a group and definitely the vault room for a date!
Food was incredible, and our server was wonderful. Very helpful with recommendations on food and wine.
The atmosphere and ambiance is worth giving the Bedford a try at least once. The food was good, could be better but was not horrible. The lounge is awesome and inside the old 1920 bank vault, then live music makes the night. Cocktails are unique and tasty. Would reccomend to a friend.
Mussels, beef tartare, mac n cheese - GET THEM. Love the ambiance, whether behind a table, on a high boy, or if lucky enough to get into the vault! Catch live jazz on Wednesdays!
First time at The Bedford. Great experience, ambience fabulous. Waiter very nice and attentive. We love champagne, the evening we were there Champagne, bottle or by the glass, was offered at a 50% discount. Guess it was our lucky night. The restaurant has separate rooms which make it perfect to either have a romantic drink/dinner in the vault, a nice dinner in the restaurant area or have fun in the vibrant bar area. We loved it, would like to try it again to see if we feel the same after our second visit.
The menu was very limited.....no salmon, one steak dish, one chicken dish...appetizers were not practical, they need to add things to the menu that everyone can relate to..desserts as well...add something that people know as well as the fancy name things...
Hello, I was at the Bedford this past Friday and I had the best time. The ambience was gorgeous, the food was amazing, and I loved the intimate vibe. I felt like it was only me and my friend having dinner. I LOOVE the vault and I can't wait to come back on a Wednesday to hear some Jazz! The Bedford is definitely a neighborhood gem. I would say a state gem. The food was amazing and I can't wait to come back and try some different ; )
It's been a while since I've been here but I have to say this place never disappoints! The menu is a bit on the limited side but everything they do is very good. The drink menu and selection is equally great as well as is the service and ambience. I'll definitely go back and recommend to others.
My wife and I went here for our 14 year anniversary. Our host walked us through the very cool bank vault lounge area on the way to our table. Our server provided complimentary champagne to kick off the evening. We had a variety of appetizers and split an entree because we like to try different things. We ordered the meat and cheese plate, 1/2 dozen raw oysters, braised beed sliders (which were to die for!), and the chicken/polenta/brussel sprout entree (also very excellent). Overall, great food, pretty good service, and outstanding ambience!
We were seated in a platformed, vintage-style booth, and behind us were the old, polished lock boxes from the former bank that resided there. The ambience was lovely-- a low-lit vintage supper club with modern finishes and colors. Despite the large size of the space, the seating created intimacy, and it was easy to hear everyone at the table. The raw oysters were excellent. The homemade crackers tasted great but crumbled too much to hold the thick crab dip.The pan-seared corvina was served skin-on, flaky and moist, the broth I could have drank from a large glass. Everything was seasoned, balanced and warm. I ordered the olive oil cake for dessert. The cake was dry, but I enjoyed mopping up with jam and creme fraiche with the crumbles.
Menu is a bit limited but the food was very good. Service was excellent and we had a great time.
We were there celebrating a birthday. It was great to get half of champagne. Had the oysters (great deal $1.00 each) and mussels - loved them. Our two entrees were the chicken and scallops - yummy. Also, had the butternut squash soup - it was heavenly. Reuben our waiter couldn't have been nicer. He took a few minutes to take our picture in the vault. Great service :-)
This restaurant is a great see and be seen place. However, the portions aren't that big and the wait staff rates everything at amazing which makes it hard to choose between things.
Restaurant is very unique. Seating placement is key. Avoid being sat in the den area. Highly recommend going in a group & sitting in the black booths near the bar. Not a fan of the cheese used in the Mac n cheese and thought the steak was a lil salty. Soup, fondue, bordelaise sauce, and donut holes were great. No valet on Mondays!!! Plan on getting there early for cocktails in the vault lounge area.
Our server was excellent and I would have given 4 stars except the hostess was incredibly rude and borderline hostile.
With so many places to dine in Wicker Park, it's hard to pick a favorite, but the Bedford is definitely in my top five. The bar is nice for a quick treat and a drink (I personally enjoy their Manhattan). I ended up going here for my birthday, and even though my family was late they still where very accommodating. For such an upscale restaurant I really have to applaud them for that. The meal itself was outstanding. I had their Free Range Chicken. It was cooked perfectly so that all the flavors and juices complimented each other and left my taste buds tingling for hours afterwards. I would highly recommend the Bedford to anyone, especially those looking for a nice date spot or a good cocktail.
Me and boyfriend came here for a romantic date night and this was the perfect choice. The atmosphere was romantic and quiet (although it was a week night). The food was good, not outstanding but overall tasty and innovative. I had the pork belly sausage and he had the burger. Both were great. We started with a round of Manhattans that were pretty good. The only downside was the service. It was a pretty slow Monday night so I am not sure why the service was slow as well. Our waitress would disappear for long periods of time. Good thing we weren't in a rush and were just enjoying the vibe of the restaurant.
It was a great night. Unusually quite, but the service was amazing and the location was great.
Very cool ambiance - like the bar areas and the seperation between dinning and bars all 4 of us gave it a big thumbs up

Food allergies: Understanding food labels
Food labels list food allergens to help you avoid an allergic reaction. Here are the top eight food allergens listed.
By Mayo Clinic staffIn the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires food manufacturers to list the eight most common ingredients that trigger food allergies. Most other countries have similar rules. In the United States, information about food allergies has to be written in simple terms adults and older children can understand. The eight foods included in food allergy labeling account for an estimated 90 percent of allergic reactions. These eight foods are:
- Milk
- Eggs
- Peanuts
- Tree nuts (such as almonds, cashews, walnuts)
- Fish (such as bass, cod, flounder)
- Shellfish (such as crab, lobster, shrimp)
- Soy
- Wheat
Understanding food labels
Food label |
U.S. food labels take some of the guesswork out of label reading, helping you more easily identify foods that could cause an allergic reaction. Here are answers to a few common questions about food label requirements.
- What foods are labeled? Domestic or imported packaged food is required to have a label that lists whether the product contains one of the top eight allergens.
- What allergy information is included on the label? The label lists the type of allergen — for example, the type of tree nut (almond, walnut) or the type of crustacean shellfish (crab, shrimp) — as well as any ingredient that contains a protein from the eight major food allergens. The labels also include any allergens found in flavorings, colorings or other additives.
- What foods aren't labeled? Fresh produce, fresh meat and certain highly refined oils don't require listing on labels.
Unintended ingredients
Food labeling laws require food allergens to be identified even in very small amounts — but only when they're contained as an ingredient. Manufacturers aren't required to include warnings about food allergens accidentally introduced during manufacturing or packaging (cross contamination). This common occurrence can cause trouble if you're very sensitive to food allergens.
Many manufacturers voluntarily include warnings, but these advisory labels aren't always clear. And, manufacturers have different ways of saying a food allergen may be present. For example, labels may say "manufactured in a factory that also processes wheat" or "may contain soy." The FDA is working to make the format of these advisory labels more consistent so that it's easier to identify which products contain allergens. When in doubt about whether a product contains something you're allergic to, it's best to avoid it.

By combing through 100 million search queries on Bing, Yahoo and Google, Microsoft Research Lab co-director Eric Horvitz and his colleagues were able to discover a previously unknown interaction between two commonly prescribed drugs. Horvitz says the method might detect dangerous drug interactions earlier than the FDA's warning system.

For Paul Thomas Anderson, moviemaking is not just an art; it's also about time management.
"At its best, a film set is when everybody knows what's going on and everybody's working together," he tells Fresh Air's Terry Gross. "At its worst, [it's] when something's been lost in communication and an actor's not sure how many shots are left or what's going on, and the makeup department's confused."
The white smoke has appeared and that can mean only one thing: the new edition of the It's All Politics podcast with NPR's Ken Rudin and Ron Elving is ready. It also means that there's no budget deal in Congress, that the annual Conservative Political Action Conference is underway and that Carl Levin has decided that 36 years in the Senate is enough.

| How sad can you get?... A Birmingham cafe is being threatened with legal action by SZC, the copyright holders to various Tolkien brands: Quote:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england...ngham-15825960 The letter states "that use of the name Hobbit "is likely to cause confusion, mistake or deception among prospective purchasers, who are likely to believe that your business is licensed, authorised, sponsored or endorsed by SZC"". It added that use of the name "takes unfair advantage of, and is detrimental to the reputation of SZC's Hobbit mark". Yeah, right. I'm not going to see the new "Hobbit" film because I had a cold cup of tea in that cafe..... | |

"They think we're this big empire, but we're just a cafe." First-time business owners learning the ropes and they get a letter like that through the post. |

| Re: How sad can you get?... True, True. They don't have a very solid case but they can still kick up a stink about it and make the cafe owners' lives miserable. Greed isn't necessarily limited to financial gain in my view, so I still see this as a form of greed. It's an easily avoidable and harmless situation, yet the SZC insist on making a complaint. |

Direwolf of the chrons | Re: How sad can you get?... The problem, however, is that if the company does not protect the IP copyright that they have purchased/licensed then it opens the floodgates to other possible infringements and I think that if they allow unchallenged use of the IP it might even void the copyright in some form -- at the very least it might well lead to future possible licence purchases paying far below the original costs to use the licence, based on the fact that other users are using it for free without permission. Sadly this is where the cold hard corporate world and legal world hits real life in a way that generally results in bad feelings. However we have to remember that whilst greed is a motive in these affairs, there is also the underlying protection that copyright affords to people which also has to be upheld if it is to remain viable. |

| Re: How sad can you get?... Um, you know, there is a middle ground they could take here*. They could (as they have) protest the use of the name without authorization, and open the door to these people to get authorization for a reasonable (read: small or decent) fee. They protect their property; the cafe owners get the publicity of the name; and the corporation gets the publicity of (gasp!) having used a little common sense in resolving an issue without going to court.... *at least, I'm assuming this is an option. It certainly used to, and still should, be so.... |

In any case, I thought the point of IP law was to prevent or redress damage caused to the IP's owner. Damage usually means loss of income and/or reputation, etc. Neither seems to have occurred here, which is why I believe they have no case (if my understanding of IP law is accurate, which is a bit of an "if"), and why they should stick to going after people who have caused such damage. | |

| Re: How sad can you get?... I thought trade names were in some sense tied to an industry, such that if there were to be a company called Express Coaches, that would not prevent a dairy company calling itself Express Dairies. Does SZC (or is it SCZ: the company is so well known that no-one can tell, short of looking it up, what the correct name is) run cafés? Are their eateries called, specifically, Hungry Hobbits? And even if the café was called The Hobbit, how could that possibly affect SCZ's (or SZC's) true business and trade names? It strikes me that where companies like SZC (or SCZ) generally win is that each target they pick on is chosen because it cannot afford to fight its corner in court, so big companies can extend the scope of their trade names purely by default (with no need for a valid case in law, provided they have deep enough pockets). This also means that JD's middle ground is no such thing. It merely allows rapacious companies to get paid for extending the scope of their trade names beyond what they should really be.) |

| Re: How sad can you get?... As Overread said above, one of the tennets in UK IP legislation is that it must be "enforced" by the holding organisation. If SZC don't chase this one, they genuinely weaken their legal case for the next time (when there might be lots of reputation and money at stake). I would have thought that, given the connections to JRRT, SZC could consider licencing the cafe and end the fuss. |

| Re: How sad can you get?... SZC are Americans, so sod them ! How can a US company have the moral right to dictate to a British company who liked the sound of a name used in a British book ? They bought the legal right, I suppose, but some things aren't for sale. |

| Re: How sad can you get?... as much as this does seem (and is) a david vs goliath case, i actually have to come down on the side of the licence holders. Hobbit is not a general word, its a VERY clearly Tolkeinesque word and even the name of the cafe, the Hungry Hobbit is a very clear LOTR/Hobbit reference. Certainly with 2 forthcoming movies, i can completely see their justification for now pursuing legal action, where perhaps in the past it hadn't been brought to their attention. |

Direwolf of the chrons | Re: How sad can you get?... Normally speaking the word Hobbit won't become "free" until 70 years after Tolkiens death, however as the books and earning are now held in a trust chances are that even in 33 odd years time, because the copyright is now trust held it will still continue on past that date. Places like the Hungry Hobbit will have to stump up the money and pay or at the very least seek the proper channels to get licensing permission. I agree that it is somewhat a shame that the global world makes these small, more local things seem to affect the little people more than they should; but in the end the copyright laws are there to protect both the big companies and the average person on the street. |

Letter: Heroin use prevention important in education
To the Editor: We would like to commend the state legislature for taking action on the heroin crisis affecting too many families in Illinois. Lawmakers recently passed House Bill 946, which creates the Young Adults Heroin Use Task Force and charges the group with studying "the growing problem of heroin use in high schools across this state."
We urge the governor to sign this bill so the task force can be formed and promptly begin its important work.
The Robert Crown Center for Health Education began piloting a heroin prevention education initiative in four counties during the 2012-2013 school year. We welcome the engagement of state lawmakers, school administrators, law enforcement, educators and parents as we seek to reduce the number of lives lost.

Hello all, I am trying to fix my sapphire 7950 3gb graphic card which is suffering from vertical solid squares, i am pretty sure i have a ram chip that has died. The graphic card works fine on general use, internet, HD streaming, flash player and HD music but as soon as any application is started the solid vertical squares appear. This is the only time i have these squares. I was wondering would a bios update work or am i looking at something more severe like a reflow of the solder. I was thinking that a reflow would be pointless as they are solid square lines. Any help much appreciated! This is the bios on the card at the moment: http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/123785/Sapphire.HD7950.3072.120330.html and i have tried both current and beta drivers. Thank you .
if you can RMA it just do that and get a new one, I had to RMA a 7970 with Sapphire before and it took about 2 weeks, but they were very quick in responding to me.
if it has been under 30 days since u got it from ebay, open a case with ebay, they usually side with the buyer, will make u ship it back to seller with tracking number but you will be refunded.
If you bought the card "as is " you probably won't have much luck with that option. but if sold as 'working' might be the best option to recoup your losses. from the looks of your pic a reflow might work. As a last resort if you can't recover from ebay. When you get the sink off or for now take a close look @ the solder points on the back could be someone tried to reflow already. If all the points have a real shine to them could be if dull lookin' prob not .. Good Luck !
Ok now i am really really confused. D3 - Artifacts resident evil - artifacts MSI kombustor - artifacts MSI 3dmark 11 - Runs fine internet - fine Start up - fine HD - fine Why is 3dmark 11 running with no issues!?.
Artifacting is artifacting...... It is probably a bad solder point. Either make a claim or bake the card. Flashing the bios will not do any good, as mentioned earlier....... My thoughts....
Hi All, I bought a sapphire card second hand. I emailed there RMA team and got a RMA request form, they never asked where it was purchased. Just wanted S/N and go. They even upgraded me to the OC edition because they were out of my card. Is your card physically damaged? If not I would just RMA it. I know sapphire bases there warranty off the S/N and not the Proof of Purchase. Infact I attached the RMA request form. Fill it out and send it back to firstname.lastname@example.com, and they should get you taken care of. Also you can typically calculate the S/N warranty by looking at the numbers in the S/N. I dont have my card in hand, but I think Saphire uses #YYWW######### YY is the year the warranty starts and WW is the week. For example A1227XXXXX would be the 27th week of 2012. Most manufacturers I have dealt with that use the S/N for warranty never ask about place of purchase unless it is getting towards the end of the S/N warranty. The only reason the place of purchase matters is because they don't want you to buy a 1.5 year old card off ebay or from some odd manufacturer and expect a 2 year warranty from date of purchase, but if you buy a card that sat on the shelf for 6 months then you do get the full warranty. Hope this helps!
Hi, sapphire refused any warranty because i could not provide a receit, even a ebay receit was not acceptable.
Rma Thats odd. It says in sapphire's RMA paperwork attached sated that lost receipts were calculated by the S/N. Hmmmm. Try just filling out the RMA form and emailing it to them. Most manufacturers want to stay liberal and offer S/N warranty over proof of purcahse warranty because it keeps excess paperwork off their back and keeps customers who buy/trade from each other happy and coming back for more. If it is a 7950 there is no way the S/N would put it out of warranty ... (I think) Did you talk to tech support or RMA team? Sometimes the tech support guys act as a front line to try to keep stuff from getting into RMA, or dont fully understand the RMA process. Try just emailing the RMA team firstname.lastname@example.com and just ask for an RMA. I wouldn't give the full story just say, "I have a 7950, this is whats wrong, and I need and RMA." Worst case scenario they still say no. When I talked to tech support there I told them that I didn't have the receipt as it is second hand and the guy didn't say a word to me. Just gave me some stuff to try then call back. Once I had completed the tests he recommended, i emailed the RMA team and just simply asked for an RMA. (I knew it was bad but I always do what those guys ask. I figure whats the harm I could have easily missed something.) I would definitely try emailing their RMA team and double checking. Hope it works out!
It deffinitely looks like a memory issue. use this and bump up the mem voltage to 1.6 and see what happens: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/61087853/Sapphire Trixx 4.4.0b-MOD.zip there have been some issues with certain cards not setting the correct voltage in BIOS.
Usually, if you are unable to produce a receipt, the S/N is used to verify manufacture date, if it is within the warranty period, they should honour warranty and RMA the card. I don't know how strict they are over in Europe, but here in Asia, S/N is used in lieu of receipt when circumstance calls for it. Edit - Btw, I cannot emphasize enough thr folly of buying a vid card from eBay.....if you want to save some cash, you can always try the local tech forums Garage or Used section. There is some recourse buying from them. I had gotten my HD6990 by trading my flashed HD6950 @6970 specs, and topping up some cash. The seller, whom I had met to do the horse trade, was kind enough to furnish me with the accessories and receipt should I need to RMA it, he assured me that the card was functioning normally.....and it was.
I was about to buy a Sapphire 7950 on the cheap from ebay with the same issues, I was hoping to reflow it and basically get a £280 card for next to nothing. Any luck with the card yet? I'm intruiged as to what the fix is for this.
Hi there, I'm new to this forum, and I think I have bought this card, or one just like it, and would like to add some info. The card is fine just browsing or watching videos. It only seems to have a problem in gaming as stated before. But not all games:- Dead Space 3 - Artifacts Max Payne 3 - Artifacts Crysis 3 - Some minor glitches, not squares, very playable Far Cry 3 - Hardly any artifacts very playable and as mentioned 3dmark 11 and the new 3d mark run fine and '11 scores around 7500 which is nice. As the OP thought I believe that a memory chip has gone or has some micro fractures in the BGA balls. Luckily I have a SMD BGA workstation and can reball or replace a chip, its just finding which one of the little sods it is, but as I'm mostly playing Crysis 3 and Far Cry 3 at the moment its not a massive issue for me. But I'll track it down and let you know how I get on.
i wish u do try to find out what it is... maybe there are more of this card out there...,would be nice to know it can be fixed.. who knows i might get to one ofthose..
I had to RMA my 7970 to Sapphire, and they did ask for a receipt/invoice. Sorry to hear your troubles OP, I hope it works out in the end

I stayed for 3-nights and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The room rate included daily housekeeping, breakfast, wifi, and a free shuttle to... DMall. The breakfast options are American, Phillipino, or Korean. All three breakfasts were good. The room was clean and included soaps and shampoo. The hotel is in a quiet part of town and about a 3-minute walk to the nearby beach and about an 8-minute walk to White Beach. Overall, this was a good value accommodation. تم التعليق بواسطة أحد النزلاء على موقع Hotels.com في فبر 25, 2013

Gail Tompkins�� I�m a teacher, first and foremost.� I began my career as a first-grade teacher in Virginia in the 1970s.� I remember one first grader who cried as the first day of school was ending.� When I tried to comfort him, he sobbed accusingly, �I came to first grade to learn to read and write and you forgot to teach me.�� The next day, I taught that child and his classmates to read and write! We made a small patterned book about one of the stuffed animals in the classroom.� I wrote some of the words and the students supplied the others, and I duplicated copies of the book for each child.� We practiced reading it until everyone memorized our little book.� The children proudly took their books home to read to their parents. I�ve never forgotten that child�s comment and what it taught me:� Teachers must understand their students and meet their expectations.
����������� My first few years of teaching left me with more questions than answers, and I wanted to become a more effective teacher so I started taking graduate courses.� In time I earned a master�s degree and then a doctorate in Reading/Language Arts, both from Virginia Tech.� Through my graduate studies, I learned a lot of answers, but more importantly, I learned to keep on asking questions.
����������� Then I began teaching at the university level.� First I taught at Miami University in Ohio, then at the University of Oklahoma, and finally at California State University, Fresno. I�ve taught preservice teachers and practicing teachers working on master�s degrees, and I�ve directed doctoral dissertations. I�ve received awards for my teaching, including the Provost�s Award for Excellence in Teaching at California State University, Fresno, and I was inducted into the California Reading Association�s Reading Hall of Fame. Throughout the years, my students have taught me as much as I taught them.� I�m grateful to all of them for what I�ve learned.
����������� I�ve been writing college textbooks for more than 20 years, and I think of the books I write as teaching, too.� I�ll be teaching you as you read this text.� As I write a book, I try to anticipate the questions you might ask and provide that information.
