I am expericencing a problem with my graphics at the moment. This typically only happens when I try to play a game, but has happened once in regular windows use. I get these sort of pixalted red/pink and green boxes...in columns My machine will then lock up and need to be turned off via the power button. I think my card is shot...what do you guys think.

Possible the video card is overheating. Check its fan,if it has one, and make sure its heatsink is on secure.

Will do. I didn't think about that because it has happened right after I turned on the machine.
