    Try updating your graphics card's drivers by downloading the latest version from the manufacturer's website (that'll be ATi or NVIDIA). Are you using an LCD monitor?

    P.S. Please don't double post - you can't expect a reply instantly. If you don't get a response within 2 or 3 days, feel free to make another post to "bump" the thread, but only within reason.

    Is it overclocked or running at stock speeds?

    If stock, then I'll agree with hitman... get a driver update before you investigate further... no piece of hardware has driver update releases as frequently as GPUs. Whatever one you're running, I bet there's a newer one, and it may be a problem already well reported, and fixed in a later release. I've not read anything that leads me to believe that, but a driver update should always be your first port of call when diagnosing a hardware problem.

    Has it always been like this, or have you only just got the card, or hs it only just started happening?
