I switched to my substitute card (see problem 2) and upgraded to Windows 7. I then tried downgrading the drivers to the version that I had when I had sent the card off in April (back when I was running Windows Vista). Just like before, the card failed whenever I activated the drivers and rebooted. I tried reinstalling Windows 7 and adding the card again. I was running the latest drivers, but I tried downgrading the drivers. When I did it got to the "Starting Windows" screen and then both of the monitors went blank and the fan on the card when into max speed. When I did, I installed the card and the drivers and restarted to activate the drivers. I sent the card in and had to wait more than two months to get the card back. In April, my Visiontek ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 graphics card started failing while playing Fallout 3 and Halo 2.
