GeForce 6800 GT PCI-e fails to start up

I was just sent a 6800GT PCIe...tried it on straight away.
When BIOS starts up ... i seem to get these mad lines and colored boxes (artifacts) which indicates that there is something definetly wrong.(straigh!as soon as I power up the PC)
I thought that it might be the screen but for sure it isnt because I tried to load up windows and the computer crashes in the middle of the load up proccess.
I have searched for incompatibility issues but i found none
I have played arround with BIOS settings...no results though.
The funny thing is that all of a sadden it worked once, got into windows, and then the whole system crashed 10 minutes later. Rebooted and...back to the old deformed screen.

My set up is :

AMD 3500+ 64bit
ASrock 939dual SATA2
NVidia GeForce 6800 GT PCIe

TAKE a look at the picture attachment to see exactly what my problem is.
