My mistake I must have mixed up. I'll fix that right away.

I just put you on the owner's list. Thanks for letting me know. As far as your problem is concerned, it's really hard to say what is wrong because it could be a software conflict, driver conflict, corrupted data/registry, defective cpu/ram, or lastly defective card. Your best bet is to run some tests on a blank HD with only the OS installed and test all your hardware to check it's working and stable. Run Prime95, IntelBurnTest, memtest, and ATI Tool. Also make sure you have all the latest drivers installed. If everything works then try to RMA the card. Thanks again I hope that helps, good luck.
