it may be a temperature issue, do you have any monitoring software for your card?
try running rthdribl, which stresses your gfx card and see what happens:

are you overclocking it at all? If so turn down the clock speeds, its unstable
If not, its a dead card, RMA it
EDIT: or the PSU isnt powerful enough, depending on what card it is, but you didnt want to specify, so.

my card is a nvidia 7600, thanks for all of this, I'll try and post the results.
:and I have more than enough RAM so that's not the issue.

If the PSU isn't powerful enough wouldn't there be problems almost as soon as he starts gaming?

yea I said that
I would say if he had a 400w or over, it would be fine. Quality matters A LOT on PSU's though, not just how many watts or amps it has. a Bad-name or Generic 600w could be way worse than a GOOD 450w

All I can think is it's the power supply.
