Graphics Problems...

Hey guys, I recently set up a RAID 0 (as some of you know), I was going to reinstall windows anyway so I decided to set up a RAID and wait. The reason I reinstalled windows was because I was having all kinds of errors and graphics problems and It would not allow me to install the newest drivers. I have an ATI all in wonder x600 pro. I had been seeing splotches on my screen and would not even be able to play BF 1942. I used to be able to play BF2 at Mid to highest settings with no problems. I have hardly ANYTHING installed on it now, and I still get splotches just while it's on the desktop... Is this a problem with drivers? can I fix this somehow? or is it just time to scrap that card and spend about $400 on a new one??

Thanks for any suggestions/help in advanced!,

    Your card is either:
    A) Overheating

    or

    B) Dying

    I believe that The Thrax is right, but it wouldn't hurt to check your monitor cable, video card slot, power connections.
    Not to mention remounting the cooler.
    Don't give up......

    It only starts to blotch when video starts to play. And then it resets itself.
    I tried resetting the card in the PCI express slot... Nothing
    In device manager it sees at as two cards. X600 and x600 secondary. Does that mean anything?
