This is 100% the same as what happened to my friend. I was perplexed as well since the behaviour changed between different versions of the drivers -- and as everyone should know ATI drivers are horrible -- but nothing solved it entirely. At the end we called up ATI customer service and they said that it was a hardware defect that caused SOMETHING somewhere on the card to get unhappily hot, and that they will repair it under warranty.
