Stress test your gfx card using this http://www.ozone3d.net/benchmarks/fur/
and use this to check your voltages http://www.cpuid.com.../hwmonitor.html post a screen shot of the results.
Unstable voltages or bad video card slot perhaps.Then why would it happen to both video cards?

Bad: When I try and run that stress program, FurMark, it says Failed to run FurMark. Startup has failed. Bye! Also, here's the results of my cpuid hardware monitor, which reports only temperatures on the hard drive, which is also bad.

Use Speedfan to attempt getting a screen shot of your temps and voltages http://www.almico.com/sfdownload.php
And GPU-Z http://download.cnet...4-10788513.html to get a basic report on your graphics card.
Any luck with the new drivers?

Gpu-z didn't run - it said the service cannot run in safe mode, and I'm still unable to boot into regular windows.

What type of video card(s)?
Can you check the voltages in bios?
You said you checked the temps, what were they? {cpu and video card}
Can you try a different monitor?
It looks like a heat issue but it could be something else....need more info.

Sorry about the delay posting back I thought you were going to do more testing and then post back with the resultsSorry it's taken me so long to reply - crazy week. I've got this whole weekend to hopefully fix this though, so I can run whatever tests you need somewhat punctually now. Anyways, the new drivers didn't help. SpeedFan ran and here's a screenshot:

Can you loan a known good PSU to try? If you look at the +3.3V reading in your Speedfan screen shot it is not registering anything, this may be the cause of the issue
as suggested in post #4 whilst this is non conclusive evidence it is a strong contender and trying another good PSU may eliminate or prove it.Unstable voltages
