    It's not integrated, it's seperate to the motherboard. I'll try change the Bios now.

    Did you just install this video card, or did it come with your system?

    It came with my system. It was working 2 days ago until my computer started freezing up so I done a clean install, now it's doing this. It happend a few days ago a couple of times aswell but not everytime, computers only 2 months old, starting to piss me off..

    Sounds like the card may be going. If the computer is only 2 months old you may want to have it checked out under warranty.

    I can only go by what you tell us, so no, I'm not 100%.... but if your new system is giving you problems.... well....

    Can you at least call them for some type of support?

    OK, I thought you may have just installed it and were missing something in the process. I would shut it down and switch off the the power supply so it can't start back up by accident. Then remove the side panel and touch the power supply with one hand to discharge any static electricity on your body. Now re-seat ( remove and then re-insert) your video card, RAM modules, and any other add-in cards like sound cards and network cards. Check all your data and power cables to make sure non of them are loose. If there is a lot of dust inside you may want to clean that out. You can buy small cans of compressed air at Staples, Futureshop, etc for that. You can do it with a vacuum cleaner too if you are car full. Now leave the side panel off and power it up. Check to make sure all the cooling fans are working. Specifically the one on your video card and the one on your CPU heat sink.

    EDIT: If there warranty stickers preventing you from opening the case without breaking them, make the call before doing what I suggested above.

    Make the phone call first and see what they tell you. Let us know after that.

    Thanks, and good luck.

    Oh and alphanumeric has some good ideas to try in the meantime.
