But as I said in another post, I tried reseating the Radeon last night and it hasn't given me a problem yet. I'll let it run for a few days and see if the problem creeps in again. Could it be something as simple as it not being seated quite right?

Yes. Seating of all components is critical. Some systems seem to need a thorough re-seating of everything every x amount of time. Depending on how often the system is running and how often it is off and cools down will affect the expansion/contraction of the metal and can cause any connection to loosen over time. Cables, cards, CPUs, memory, etc may work loose and cause all kinds of fun troubleshooting adventures and hilarity. Sounds like you may have just experienced one! Stan
