AAAAH white lines through screen!!!

My friend and I tried to install my old x800xtpe into his computer today. the card worked fine in my system just yesterday and was carried in an antistatic bag to his house. It posted fine and was fine until we got to the windows xp loading screen. At that point the loading bar was whacked and when we actually got into windows there were white lines through the screen covering about half of it and windows itself(all that could be seen) was at like 8 colors. So regardless of the lines we instaleld the latest driver and that didnt fix anything so now we are confused as to what is causing this. His x800pro works fine in his system but the xtpe gives stupid white lines. Dead card i guess?

Sounds like the card has crapped out. I took my 9800 Pro out to clean it with some air. Put it back in and got the same effect. I ended up RMAing the card.
