could be some memory problems, though here is a list of what your errors mean. here but from what i see, they are both reserved so call up xfx, since you have two of their products. make sure it isn't a motherboard issue but find out what their RESERVED errors are.
Man, I had to RMA a 9800GT 3 times to finally get a working card from XFX. It is one thing to get 1 bad card out of the box, but when you have to go through 2 additional RMAs to get a working product... that is just BS... I will stear clear of XFX in the future.
