I noticed that the heatsink was loose so i put it back but i havent tried it yet becase it keeps on crashing my dell, shall i try again? please help, i need some tips and guide.

thanks

Answer 1

I just had my own video card go. It was an older card on the AGP bus. The heat sink died and I was left hanging. Like a CPU, the GPU can be done in by heat. Chances are that it is not worth the effort of repairing the heat sink. Good luck.
