When I boot up cold all my graphics are garbled up.. But after 2-3 reboots it runs fine. Even the motherboard splash screen is messed up on cold boot. Just started doing this a few days ago. I've had the card 2 months..

Before you do anything, double check to see if the Video card is tightly in
place? Not sure if it is try pulling it out and placing back in until you
hear a subtle click into place. Make sure the Monitor cable firmly in place
as well?
