That's definitely artifacting. Are you sure your card is not overheating ? X1900s get very hot, which is considered "normal", but how hot does your card get ?
Did you overclock your card (your sig doesn't say) ? Or when you said "reset the card", you meant you downclocked it ?
You could have a defective/dying card, but make sure it's not just the heat. If it is, you need to either downclock your card (if you overclocked it) or change the cooler on it, to a better one.

thanks for a fast reply Silus!!

as you can see in the picture, the temp is 50C and it does not go beyond 65C load. i change the HSF.

i did once overclocked this card to 643 core and 549 mem . but thats 2 months ago. after that i run it stock speed.

i think the card is dying
