So.. bit of a head scratcher this.
About a week ago I got a Purple screen on my monitor (not solid purple, like white noise except colored with a purple background)

The odd thing is this, if I run say Furmark or OCCTPT for an hour... and nothing no problems found or reported.

It can't be just overheating as during Furmark it his 85C and stays there happily working away...

To give an example, Team Fortress 2, it crashes the moment you try to launch into a server.
Battlefield Bad Company 2, i can log in, play for a moment or two then it dies.
((Interesting note, screen turns the odd purple and dots, then shut off but sound loops.))

But then I go play Mount and Blade Warband for an hour without any issues..

Any thoughts guys ?:) (And girls ?:) )
