Well, it all started when I had my trusty Evga GeForce Ti 4200 8X in my pc for about a year. Then one day I saw that my pc was very dusty and I pulled it apart to give it a good clean. All I took out was the PCI cards and the video card. After blowing all the dust out I put it back together and hooked it up, but I didn't have time to turn it on cause I had to leave for school. The next weekend I came home and turned on my pc and there was no video output whatsoever. I tried everything and realized it was dead, so I RMA'd it to Evga for a new FX 5700. I get the new card a couple days ago, put it in, and it worked. The next day, I came home from work, and turned on my pc. It booted to windows, and as soon as I started browsing the web, all these blocks started appearing on the the screen until it filled and the screen went blank. It never output any video again. So I was fed up, and I went to my local Circuit City and got a new built by ATI 9600XT for $150 after rebates. I brought it home,and installed it. It worked fine, I was really impressed at the 2d quality since I have an lcd monitor with dvi, and at the 3d performance. But....it too had a problem. From time to time, it would flicker red horizontal lines across the screen both in 2d and 3d. Then some other times, in games, it would change resolution to a blank screen, and nothing would bring the video back. So today, I brought it back, and got another of the same, and installed it. IT HAS THE SAME EXACT ISSUES! So this is where I am now. I don't think it can be my pc that at fault, since I tried an old Asus TNT2 ultra card and it works perfectly. I was actually using this card without a hitch for a couple weeks while waiting for the replacement from Evga. I have an older pc that I will try the Radeon in to see if its my pc. I will also take the card thats in the old pc, which is a GeForce 2 MX and try it in my pc for awhile. I will post the results of this later. Thanks in advance for any insight into this problem. Sorry about the long post.
