I bought the GIGABYTE GV-RX80256D Radeon X800 256MB and the rig in my sig has been restarting (I had written earlier that it was spontaneously but I'm starting to see a trend). I can force the computer to have a blue screen if I try to run PCMark 05. Before the program loads, it freezes and I get a blue screen talking about a device or display driver. When I get back into windows I get Error message: STOP 0x000000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER

Should I RMA this sucker? I have tried both the drivers that come with the card as well as the newest from ATI's site (after uninstalling thre previous). I also tried underclocking the card and memory. The problem still happens and I also have had the system similarly crash after playing Far Cry for a while.
