started running 3dmark06 and after about 45 seconds, the screen goes crazy with weird patterns and circles. I'm assuming this isn't part of the test, right? Does it stay showing the shooting game or is it supposed to switch to pattens? It looks like is has frozen up. My cursor doesn't move.

Bad video card?

If it wont run 3DMark06 and the drivers are confirmed (182.50 are) its a bad card

There is one other possibility and that is the PSU is shot on the PCIe rails. That I would consider very rare if everything else is working fine,.. but it is possible.

I would have the card replaced.
