Well, I bought a eMachines T3522 computer on Black Friday. The $189.99 deal. Anyway, I also bought a Radeon x600 PCI Express x16 video card, the 256mb model. The card's performance is just fine, I'm not really a gamer, jsut a very casual game player, but mostly movies and music. The problem is, it has been having this weird problem and ATI won't help me. Every so often, the video card will suddenly cut out, the screen will go blank, and then it will set itself to OpenGL, and it almost seems to lose the video driver. I have tried reinstalling the driver, taking the card out and putting in a different computer, and still got the same results. I'm pretty much ready to chuck it out the window, before I buy a new video card, is there anything else that can fix this? It's totally random, it does not happen when performing a specific task or anything, and usually it happens at least twice an hour.
 
Well, my parents got it for me, and it was well past the RMA date when I recieved it, they got it as a surprise for me. I'll probably just buy another card, I'll probably get something like a x1300, as that would suit my needs just fine
