    check in your PCIE slot, a stray dust bunnies could get in there and cause a problem, also make sure you are plugged into port one on the video output

    remove the card and look into the slot with a light, that air can just push it right down in there and will stay until you pull it out.

    Is it going directly to the FF code, if so.
     
    Check to see it you knocked loose your bios chip on the motherboard.  Press down on it.
     
    Also try a bios clearing.
     
    And double check the cpu power connector.
