Last night while playing Doom 3 i noticed green pixels all over the screen and then different color squares. Monitor was constantly trying to reset. Unfortunately nothing helped to cure the situation. Reinstalling driver and reflashing vc and mb bios did not help either. Guys let me know what do you think. Just to add some details. This distortions are visual already on post and in bios setup. Sometimes i can not even boot to windows. I replaced this card with ati 9800 from powercolor and it works so it is definately not a motherboard. Why me?

I need your expertise.
THANK YOU

What card did you have, and what (and why) did you flash it to?

have a look at my post. brand new rig, same problem.

the issue is with the power supply, the card ain't getting enough power. brought the computer to the shop where i got it from and they even switched my antec 380w for a 460w and still same old problem.

the card is on its way back to leadtek right now so they can test it, b/c they don't even have one in hand. meanwhile i gotta go look for a new card.
