So thats what happens when a video card takes dump. That sucks. Maybe its under warranty?

it might be, but i dont have the reciept, and i guess u have to register within a week after buying the card to be eligible for the warranty

It's not overclocked, is it? Those types of errors appear when the memory on the card is OC'd too much.

If it's just from being at too high of a speed, then it might not be dead yet, sometimes you can downclock them a tad to keep them running.
