First off, thank you for any and all answers, they are greatly appreciated 
I bought this card brand new yesterday off lambda-tek.com and it arrived today, so I was well chuffed with that, so, without hesitation I installed it into my rig and fired it up. It seemed to work perfectly fine until after I installed the drivers (latest) and rebooted it, now at the windows login screen I get around 5 - 10 seconds of display before the screen goes blank with no signal plastered across it and the fans on the card fire up to 100%. It seems like the problem occurs when the either the driver loads or when another program loads at boot
My rig:
Mobo: Asus crosshair v formula
CPU: AMD FX 8350 (8 core @ 4.0Ghz)
RAM: G Skill Sniper 12Gb @ 1600 Mhz
PSU: Dell ND285 1000w server PSU (Bastardized for ATX (worked fine for 4+ years)
HD's: Seagate 250Gb + Hitachi 500Gb @ 7200 rpm
OS: Win 7 Ultimate x64
Driver ver: 347.09 WHQL
Nothing OC'd
I have tried re-installing the drivers several times to no avail, windows boots up fine in safe mode and when there are no drivers installed, I have been through mcsonfig and disabled the driver manually although the problem still persists. Atm everything is out of the case with bare minimum connected (i.e. HD, mouse, keyboard, monitor, etc.) Iv'e tried all pci-e lanes and all 4 6-pin power connectors as well as both a single 6-pin to 8-pin adapter and a dual 6-pin to 8-pin adapter.
I've tried searching on google but couldn't find anything, I'm starting to think it could be either my dodgy bastard child of a server's PSU (to be fair, it is pretty old) or some kind of compatibility issue with my mobo.
I'm about to try the old card to see if that still works and try some older drivers then it'll will be a bios reset and individual ram testing. If all that fails, I think it might have to be a reformat.
If iv'e missed anything or you need more information, just let me know, sorry for the long read and I appreciate any help that you give
