try reseating graphics card (first) and then ram if that doesn't work.

I had a problem with the sony trinitron moniters awhile back, kept blowing them (3 in total..hehe)

so i got a nec.


I wish I had a signature.

Sounds like the video card

make sure its securaly in the back

try taking out the video card and outting it back in
