Problems like the clock losing the time and the computer "forgetting"
what hard drives are connected usually indicates a faulty battery on
the motherboard.  There is a small battery which allows the static
RAM in the real time clock to remember the time and IDE settings etc.

The only two problems which come to mind are that some graphics
cards pull too much current through the card connector and damage
the motherboard - some newer cards have a separate power connector.
The other issue I mentioned previously - with my Gigabyte motherboard
I have had interuupt problems caused by the SCSI controller and
the graphics card insisting on sharing the same interrupt.
I don't know anything specifically about ATI cards.

Again, the best resource for these issues is the gigabyte newsgroup.
