Bench any incite into the above random video failure issues? I have never had a card fail once i get a successful boot up but i have had the system load with out loading my vid drivers (on older 178 drivers) and now i get no video even at powerup(pre windows on the system checks) and the system still fully loads windows(i hear the bootup windows chime) this to me says its not a driver issue but a bios or hardware issue... have you ever seen this? Could this be vid card and not MB? I suspect MB due to the nature and timming of the error but my expertise is far less then yours. Thank you again.


PS: no system freezes thus far, only a couple random World of Warcraft drops... seems to be a memoery error but it is unconfirmed.
