Ok, so I've had my computer running rock solid for around a year at 2.6Ghz on a 3800+ X2. Last night I was playing some World of Warcraft, and I kept hearing a fan speed up and slow down. I figured it might be my video card, so I opened ATiTool to check my temps. However, my computer froze when I tried to open it, and I noticed a red square on one screen and a red line on the other (I run a dual monitor setup). After that, I couldn't get my computer to boot back up. It was taking a LONG time to post, around 3-4 minutes each time. The first time it gave me a "Warning, CMOS settings in safe mode. Blah blah...", so I reverted back some some previous settings. One time I actually did almost get into Windows... after the Windows loading screen the screen remained blank though.

After trying to reboot several times, I went to bed out of frustration and figured I'd make a post in the morning. However, I'm on my computer right now. It didn't seem to have the same problem this morning.

Any ideas?

My first though was that it was the video card, although I suppose it could be anything at this point.
