Does this happen if you boot into Safe Mode?

Is this for the computer in your sig?

Are you overclocking?

Anytime you run into problems with an overclocked computer the first thing to do is return the system to stock speeds.

Can you get into Safe Mode okay?

Does the same video problem show up when you boot into Safe Mode?

Does the computer seem to work okay in Safe Mode?

What kind of drivers are you using for your video card? WHQL drivers or beta?

Did you reset your computer to stock speeds yet?
