So recently I tried switching back from mining LTC to BTC for a change, but when I did this cgminer presented me with nothing but a series of "GPU0: invalid nonce - HW error."
Googling this has me worried that I have fried my card or something, but here is the catch: I can mine LTC without any differences in speed or general performance and I can play games using my card (XFX 6950 2GB) and I will get the same FPS as what I would expect.
Why would this happen? Is there a fix? Is my card still fried? (And if it is, would XFX cover it? I do have a Double Lifetime Warranty, but I'm not sure if I am still covered since I did some minor overclocking.)

Bump. I'd ask the dedicated support section, but I asked to get out of here days ago and nothing was ever done.  Undecided

which mining software and pools are you using.  That might be helpful for us to know

Ah, of course. I am using CGMiner 2.11.3 and I have tried switching between BTCGuild, Coinotron and Eligius.
