Yeah I had the same problem. But it scaled to worse. Now I just get blackscreen and everything freezes. After a while the (black&white) pixels comes up and then its either manual reboot or auto. One red light have started to shine on the card so I guess it has done its work.

Its dosent solve your problem but you might get an idea of whats comming up if it keeps going like this.

This is pretty new (2 weeks old), it's a replacement motherboard for the exact same model that was fault - which kept freezing and rebooting. At least this time I get an error message.

I have had that same problem and I know the answer. Your video card is going and you need to replace it. Start talking with the manufacture before your computer is completely unusable. If it is one built onto the motherboard then that sucks but you are going to need to replace it again. I would try to get a different motherboard from them seeing as this is the second problem. I would like to know the brand and motherboard so as I know never to use this. Good luck with getting it fixed.

Your welcome I hope I helped, ASUS is normally a good brand, seems you have gotten the 1/200 boards that are broken twice. If your build is over $500 just wondering why it doesn't have a graphics card.

Not really a 'gamer'. So never though of buying a graphics card.
