Default Bfg 9600gt Oc

Turned my pc on this morning and i get the bios post screen then the windows loading screen, but then my monitor goes to sleep and nothing else happens, the pc contuines to load. i press the on/off button and it will shut down and turn off. I put my old 7900GT in and took the 9600 out and windows works normal, soon as i put the 9600 back in the same thing happens again. Any ideas on this or is the card buggered.
Cheers
Nic..

Sounds like a driver issue.

Get into windows somehow (safe mode?) and remove all the nvidia drivers, then put you 9600 in and it should boot fine, then put the latest nvidia drivers on from their website.

If that doesn't work you could try using the "use last know good configuration" and see if that will work.
