NVIDIA 8800 GT Screamer
Early this year I replaced the stock video card in my 2006 Mac Pro with an Apple supplied Nvidia 8800 GT card. I'm driving a 30" Apple Cinema Display with no problems but occasionally, when encoding video or playing full screen games, the card emits a high pitched tone akin to a smoke alarm tone but continuous. When discontinuing the encoding or stopping the game, the tone stops.
Any ideas on why this is happening?
TIA

One more thing might cause a problem. Check to be sure the card is set down tight in the slot. It is possible to install the card and have it still work yet be a little out of the slot. Thus might cause a small loss of power and still work.
