Got a problem with a GTX 470 that I can't solve. I bought it brand new and used it for about a year, and then sent it to a friend and it worked for while longer and all of a sudden he was getting a Code 43 error, basicly what happens is he was just at the desktop and the Nvidia drivers tried to reset and failed and now gets this error in device manager, so he sent it back to me since I'm the original owner and I put it in one of my computers and I confirmed the same problem. Is thier something I can do to fix it here or is it RMA time?

    Did he change/update drivers recently? I imagine you probably have since giving it away.

    Yea he tested many drivers on it with same problem, the card just won't except any and brings back the same Code 43
     
    he is currently running a GT 630 card in his system and its working fine, and I had a GTX 460 in the system I tested the 470 in and it worked fine.

    Yep i had the card and all of a sudden it  just stopped working and  i had that issue   and i was on windows  8 RP at the time in early november and   it happened   so i tried all of windows 8  refreshing methods    tried  many drivers tried  differant  PCI-E slots  nothing them   i reverted back to windows  7   same issue   
     
    Really Ticks me off cause it was a great performing card   and i had to  get someone to buy me the  630 for a  temp card cause  i had planned to buy me a beefy card agian  this month    cause  my Dad and i got on section 8  assistans    But   now Sadness  
     
        My Dad passed away  on january 8th so  my income was cut  in half now down to  a single  $710.00 SSI check   so  it sucks    so a new card   is  gonna be way way  in to the future    but  i Thank you nite for sending me that card  while it lasted   Nite is a Real friend  Real real friend TY

    Have you used a monitoring program to check the temperatures? Is the error 43 there from the beginning or does there error come up after a certain amount of time? If so, how long?

    The only time i ever had a 'code 43' error - it ended up being the dying stages of the card. The RMA card never showed that error  again

    It's thier from the beginning, Aero Glass doesn't even work once windows boots up and its stuck at 800x600 resolution
     
    I'm pretty sure its a hardware failure, I'm gonna RMA it soon.
