My PC is not working properly.

Sometimes when I start it up, during POST, the screen freezes and looks all pixelated.

Sometime when I start it, the PC starts up, but it does not "engage" the monitors, as if the PC is not on at all.

Sometimes it freezes right after I sign on.

I am comfortable around PC's (I built this one, and numerous others) and it is running XP Pro and is about 6 years old. I cleared the CMOS, and made sure all connections are snug. I am not sure if the Vid card is dying or what. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot.
