So recently (past week or two), my computer has been spazzing after start-up. The screen will flicker, jump around and will sometimes pause like in the picture. This goes on for about a minuet or two, and then stops. The weird thing is, this only happens after Windows loads. POST, Windows boot screen, even when my desktop first starts everything is fine. And mostly this happens on the first start-up of the day, restarts are normally perfectly fine, with a few exceptions here and there. Once Windows is fully booted up will it start to spaz. I have reinstalled the drivers, checked the cables, and made sure my cards are seated properly, yet the problem still continues. I'm running two AMD HD5870's, with LG Flatron monitors (E2350 and W2361VG).

Does this occur in safe mode?
Try just one card at a time and see if it happens. If one of them causes it and not the other then you got yourself a faulty card.
try and use a linux boot cd to manually update your driver. i reccommend ubuntu for linux noobs. just go on a public computer or in my case, a school computer and burn a cd-whatever with ubuntu then edit your bios to boot. then use ubuntu to go on the internet, check driver stuff and download latest driver and use some kind of hard drive editor to reinstall new driver.

YOU DO NOT UPDATE DRIVERS THROUGH ANOTHER OS

Wait, I don't even... What?
Your post doesnt make sense at all.
Even if you are allowed or are able to do such thing on a public computer, why recommending ubuntu to Linux noobs. If one is a Linux noob there is no way that person is even remotely capable of 'updating videodrivers manualy" under that general user unfriendly OS.
@ Op: Does Windows crash aswel that you can tell, or is it just the image?
