hey guys I need help.  I just tried overclocking my 7600gt using ntune.  I clicked on find optimal settings and it put it on 622 and 855.  So I clicked apply .  I then started up fear and I'm seeing a alot of artifacts.  I then went back into ntune to try and set it back to normal settings, but every time I lower the clock speeds it  says 'GPU test failed'.  What can I do to get it set back to normal settings again?  Should I try using another over clocking software?  Someone please help.

Well, I just restarted my computer and it went back to factory settings.  Am I always supposed to restart after overclocking?  lol sorry I'm kinda new at this.

I use rivatuner too, it never failed to clock down so far, but yes when I clock down again it will ususally not get rid of the artifacts untill I restart.
