PNY 6600GT BIOS and Boot Menu Problems

I purchased a PNY Geforce 6600GT just over a year ago, and from day one whenever I accessed my BIOS options or the boot menu I would get no output and the screen would flicker on and off.
I have tried my old 3D Fuzion FX5500 and I could access the BIOS fine, heck even the intergrated gfx chip was fine but I just couldnt get the BIOS options to show up with the 6600GT in.

Anyway, I need to be able to access the boot menu and BIOS as I have recently installed Wubi (a form of installation for Ubuntu) and cannot see the windows boot menu or the BIOS one.
So does anybody have an idea what could be causing this?

PC Specs:

CPU: Pentium D 920 2.8GHz (Not Overclocked)
Mobo - Gigabyte GME8I865GME-775-RH (Unsure which revision)
GFX Card - PNY GeForce 6600GT (Not Overclocked)
RAM: PNY PC3200 2x512MB
HDD - 80GB Samsung SATA HDD 7200RPM
PSU: Generic 450W PSU

Note: I have latest BIOS version for my motherboard.
