Hi everyone!

I have a strange problem, I haven't been able to solve, even with quite some knowledge of videocards, and computers.
I have an Radeon Hd 3600 series purchased a year ago (all new, no second-hand). Everything worked very well, until about a week ago. Sometimes, when I power on my computer, there is just NO output to my monitor. If this happens, the videocard does get power, the fan does start spinning for a while, but my screen stays idle. Also, if this happens, it is always when I power on my computer, NEVER while it is on.
I have the correct drivers installed, both Windows 7 and Linux (Ubuntu 10.10) don't want to show...
My onboard VGA worked perfectly, everything as well, just sometimes the videocard. Sometimes it suddenly works again, that's the strange part. I don't know what goes wrong, so I can't repair it...
For the last two days, there has been no output at all, I'm all on my onboard VGA now.
It always happen at boot times if the graphic card works it works till i shutdown the computer otherwise computer boots up(windows sounds) but with no display(black screen).
