I agree, two dead cards in the same way seems a little too odd for my liking. Is your pci down at 100 or pushed up? Does sound like a m/b problem.

okay i got my new 5770 yesterday, and it worked fine, except for when my computer would idle there would be little red blocks everywhere, but i ran it for about 6 hours straight with no real problems.
but this morning i got the same problems that i had before i sent the card in. the computer boots all the way up to the windows splash screen and when the screen (is supposed to) change to the user login screen it just goes black.
but if i go into safe mode and uninstall the drivers, the computer would boot normally
should i contact sapphire again for another RMA?
in the mean time im getting well aquainted with safe mode

i only have 1 slot and when it worked, i still had my nvidia drivers on my computer
i think its the motherboard
its at 100
well my XP X64 stopped working, and yes it happens in XP and W7,
yes i had the right drivers
Id hate to have to pull out my 939 Nforce4 board to test it also..
so im probably going to buy a AM3 board that supports PIIX6 and drop a cheap athlon in there until the X6's come out
