So I'm playing SOF2 when all of the sudden I get a BSOD that says something to the effect of "invalid IRQ". So I hit the on off button and got a "distorted" long post beep with no picture. I restart again......still the same except no post beep, only no picture. Try and try again......no go. I swap in my GF3 and bam....I got a picture, but after it verifies ram, it says something like CPU invalid, please check CMOS settings in Softmenu. I check and it's all set properly, so I exit BIOS and boots fine. No problems thus far, though I haven't played any games yet. The one thing that troubles me is that I had video at the time of the crash and read the BSOD, but as soon as I restarted....no picture. I don't have another computer to test the card, but what else could it be? BTW this card is brand new!!!!!!

Did you just install some new ram? RAM can cause the wierdest errors I've seen, if you got Dimms just try each one individually.

EDIT: Thats if of couse the card works in your other computer....
