I have an old rig with a Geforce 6800GT

It started to give random lockups that could be reduced by lowering memory clock. Then there was artifacting from startup. I could start in safe-mode and see the screen full of artifacts.

I decided to bake it and the artifacts went away, but it still lockups frequently.
The odd thing is that if I remove the drivers it becomes much more stable. But still freezes from time to time.

I'm using it right now writing this.
 
Sounds like it might be time for a replacement, I'm sure even for $20 you could get something better. That is a pretty old video card, after all, some things just wear out.
