Pull one card out and see if it happens still, if it does swap out the other card and try again.

yea, that was my next step. I was going to pull both out and give them a blast with compressed oxygen. (clean them) then try each one individually. To me this really does sound like a GPU problem. Wish me luck

OK, i found the problem. Turns out one of my GPU cards was dying. Through process of elimination i figured out which one it was. I took it out and now I am back to normality. However, the working graphics card in there won't shut up cause he's lonely :P\

CASE RE-OPENED!
Well, just when I thought I was in the clear this happens. I was playing a game and it froze. The screen went multi-colored, and had little horizontal lines going accross the screen. I restarted and brought up Firefox, and it happened again soon after opening. We got these video cards relatively at the same time so it makes sense, and the symptoms are relatively the same. Everything once again points to MY OTHER VIDEO CARD DYING! FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, I switched out my old 9800 with my even older 7600. Things are slower...................................... much slower, but It still works. Nvidia said they will replace BOTH of my cards for free. I should get them in like 10 days. Hopefully this card will survive until then. :P
