Finally got my first ever self built rig together last week after much pondering and lurking these forums and everything was going great until I turned it on this morning and I'm getting all these weird lines running across the screen and once I get to the desktop the computer just shuts down or resets (fine when I boot into safe mode - still get the lines across the screen). Searched google and it seems it's most likely my video card overheating :eek: Can anyone confirm this for me, I've barely gotten 15 hours out of the thing yet and it's packed up already? :confused:

Here's a pic of the lines:

Looks like RMA time mate :( What care is it mate?

Looking that way :( I was using an All-In-Wonder X1800 XL. Getting a replacement's gonna be a bitch too 'cos I've heard ATI are a bit pants for that sort of thing and the other option is where I bought it -No competitor talk please! :o
