You need to RMA the card it sounds faulty, call the place you bought it from and get an RMA number, send it back and they'll send you a new card, its not an uncommon problem, it happens all the time and it needs to be RMA'ed.

I think it is dying, dernit. It is not overheating. I don't know. Looks like I will have to get an 6800 gt pci express card for my new MSI 7135 ver1
