Galaxy 8800 GTS Problem (i think)

First of all Hi All,
Ok, I've been having weird problem with my PC recently. At beginning my XP just didn't load up. It would litarally flash a blue screen (too quick to be able to read anything of it) just before a welcome screen and then it would reset itself. Ok, on seperate disk I had win7 so i've tried that one and it worked so I assumed it's Win error. After reinstall i've noticed when i would launch any game after couple minutes it would freeze whole system. Reset. (Both systems had this issue). GPU temp was ~74*C CPU ~50*C. Next symptom was when loading BIOS i'd have all those weird signs, letters mixed in a sensless way also some weird green dots all around Gigabyte splash screen. Then i was able to load XP only in safe mode or VGA (could not change any resolution or color depth). Now i run the system as per normal but i've unistalled graphic card via device manager. Now the question is what may be tne root cause of this? Can GPU be faulty, motherboard or drivers (tried XP, Vista and 7 - same thing).
I'd appriciate any help, kinda desperate here.
If neccessery will provide additional info.
Thanks
