graphics card problem

[dmr20]

Hi,
I've got a sapphire radeon 1950 graphics card with the correct driver (it's new and i've tried re-installing the driver). Whenever i try to play games, it beeps repeatedly but i can play, but then it randomly stops and the screen goes blank and says 'no signal'. I can't do anything except turn my pc off and on again. Half the time it loads up like nothing has happened, the rest of the time i get this error message:

BCCode : 10000050 BCP1 : FF030000 BCP2 : 00000000 BCP3 : F825FDEB
BCP4 : 00004150 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 2_0 Product : 768_1

Can anyone help? Much appreciated

The card beeps? Or is it the motherboard.
You can usually locate a copy of the beep codes from the motherboard manufacturers web site... these might be helpful.
The Saphire Radeon 1950 is a good video graphics card, but nearly 15 % of video graphics cards arrive defective... regardless of the brand.
Since it is new, I would check with the Tech support people a the Saphire site... or just return it to the seller for replacement.
