I just installed a new gfx card and when my windows loads up it takes longer than usual to load the desktop. When it's loading the desktop, my monitor will flicker on and off a couple of times before settling down. Also when I play games it will just freeze with the sound still being played and when it unfreezes my monitor will go off and come back on.

Anyone got any idea?

Thanks :)
 
Motherboard: ASRock P4VT8+
Card: Radeon 5500

I've tried the catalyst drivers and the omega drivers and both were doing the same thing.
 
what kind of card? Did you uninstall the prior drives and then re-install you new gfx card drivers. Sounds to me like the video drivers are fubarred. Or, hopefully not, you bought a defective card!
 
Oh god I hope not. I just set up a fresh OS. It took me long enough set it up as it is.
 
The card is brand new. What's RMA? And how can I tell if my card is overheating? I have everest but I can't find temperatures.

Do you think the x4/x8 thing might have something to do with it?
