I've also faced the same problem. As far as I searched, same 
problem appears on other OSs such as Linux, too, with X.org 6.8.2 and 6.9.
Then I've thrown away the 6200TC card, and bought 6600GT card instead.
On my another box, GF6200A (without TC) is working well.
So, maybe the TC is evil, I think.
