If by bootup you mean pre-Windows, and it's already artifacting, I'd say the card is screwed. I'd pack it up and start up an RMA immediately (sucks that it's bad on arrival :()

Thanks for help Mr K6,

Yes pre Windows is messed up with pin stripes..

I am to happy that I waited 5 days for a new card and the effort to re-wire and install card, now have to wait another three weeks or so if I'm lucky..

Just last month UPS lost an order and had to wait 10 days plus 5, I am pretty cranky with this bad card :(
