What is your opinion of an issue if there is a red line through one screen (out of two). This does not happen during the boot, but once in Windows is when it appears. Drivers? Video card overheating?
 
sounds like a card issue.
I would re-seat you videocard and check the cable plugged into that slot.

Also try switching the monitor cables to see if its the monitor or the port on the card. :cool:

Sounds like the video card is messed. Correct me if I'm wrong, but until windows is actually running, the display is run by software acceleration. So... I don't think it's the monitor. Reseat the video card, and try new drivers. If it's overclocked, set it to stock.
