As you say I think the time has come to RMA it. The only problem as far as I see it is the card works most of the time and only fails on occasion. This is a very difficult fault to pin down and they might just test the card and return it saying it is working. I would suggest putting in a note so that the engineer understands the fault is intermittent.

Hi

Just an update on things...

I returned the gigabyte card for a refund since I was still under the return period. After that I purchased an MSI GTX570 Twin Frozr iii. It's been several weeks since I've had this new card and have had no problems booting. In other words the problem was the Gigabyte SO card.

Hi

Try disabling the power saving modes and sleep modes in the BIOS. Make sure that you get them all.

I try'd this but its still the same. I think i send it back to the Dealer if there is no Solution, i paid 320 Euro for this Card so i can expect that the Card works properly.

Yes I would agree that it is time to return it now. You have tried all the usual ways to get it working properly.
