I picked up this brand new Dell 256mb X800XT off of eBay for $35,must have been new old stock.Great deal.

Anyway,this morning I boot my computer and it looks like the Matrix,green lines and dots everywhere.It was like this from the instant i turned it on,so its not a driver issue.Booted into windows like that too.

So I come home and turn on my comp and everything is normal,not one single green spec.

My power supply is a 550w antec Truepower and my previous card was a 7900GT that ran flawless (x800XT is only a spare).

What could cause this? Maybe just a fluke? Everything else has been rock solid stable.Cards temperature is 37c at idle.

Thanks
