    Well I was right. After the Tech replaced both video cards we fired it up and the Blue video corruption was back as before. Well I told him before we even started working on it that it was the cable. Well guess what they didn't send the cable even thou I told the guy on the phone to send it. So to test my theory we took apart the computer again and left the cable disconnected from the video cards. Low and behold it works now!!

    They are overnighting a new cable so even thou it's not fixed yet I have to give props for the fast turnaround on this machine. Wish me luck that the new cable works (it should) :cool:
