Problems with Radeon 6850

Hi

I'm having issues with my Radeon 6850 in my Vulcan HD PC (approx 6 weeks old): when I go to watch certain videos, for example it's happened with YouTube, and avi's, the monitor just shows either a green or yellow screen, and the PC locks up so I have to perform a manual reset.

Specs are:

AMD Phenom II X4 3.4GHz
4GB Ram
Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit)

Has anybody else had this problem, or is it a case or returning under the warranty.

I'd be grateful for any advice / help that could be offered.

Thanks.

I had a similar problem when watching youtube clips with my previous Radeon AMD6870. This was solved by deselecting Hardware Accelaration for flash. I thought this was resolved with the later drivers. Not sure if the problem has come back with the new set of drivers.

I now have my fair share of issues with my new GPU and TDR's.
