Please help me

My current VGA is ASUS FX5800 non Ultra card with 400core and 800mhz mem.
I dont overclock it and always it is at about 48'c, and 65'c temperature @ maximum.

but couple of days ago when I was using WinXP (not any 3d work) some areas of my screen showed some hundreds of small squares (about 4 x 4pixels in size)
when I tap my cpu case it was changing

I restarted and from the boot screen the squres were there and it only shows them in colour background, DOS and other text were normal.

i thought the AGP port was loose, but in other motherboards also this problem came.
And I use another VGA on this Mboard, it worked properly.

when i shake the casing the problem getting worse.

so please help me, Im g0ing to the dealer (i used it over 1year+ but got ASUS 3yr warranty)
any thing to check/ do before go??

I really love this CARD and i will have lots of problems to warranty claim, (thaey dont have a good money worth vga now and got those 6600LE 256MB s)
