Well screw me. My Radeon 8500 isn't working. I boot up and only get black and white gibberish. Started ok, I messed around in BIOS and couldn't get all my IDE devices detected ok. Now I can hardly see a thing on screen. There's a ton of white crap, and I can barely make out a little bit behind it.
I just reseated the card, I'm going to clear the CMOS next. Any ideas?

Send it to me and I'll test it for a couple years for you, just to make sure it is reliable.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

If you havent OCed it or void the warranty ATi's RMA should replace it free of charge.

No, of course I haven't OCed it. I've tried it in my parent's Dell and it worked fine. I'll try it again (I'm sitting at the Dell now).

EDIT:
Well, [-peep-] me. I've now had a motherboard AND video card die within a month. Now I have to wait even longer with no computer for Ati to receive and send me a new card. Apparently God doesn't want me to have a computer :mad:

Bummer! Can't you give credit card number and they send before you do? Asus takes 3 weeks to send back a mobo (not even the same, a rebuilt one).

I don't know, I guess I'll find out.
