So, earlier this evening my gaming rig started up and blacking out. Investigation eventually revealed the culprit to be the fan on the video card, which had conked out. Being a part OF said card, had to go replace card. Unfortunately now gaming rig is offline entirely and in the shop to determine why. Still have what I call "media machine" for browsing web and whatnot...but it can't run minecraft let alone NWN2. Hopefully fixed sometime tomorrow, or at least I will know what be wrong then. |

I'm confused: Shouldn't a new video card have solved the problem, or is there something underlaying the issue beneath? |

It SHOULD have, but replaced card only to find that the machine now displayed NOTHING to the monitor (monitor just said no signal). Swapped back to the old overheating one, same problem. I'd taken it to the store just to test out and make sure it worked...and at that point I didn't know what was wrong so had to leave it there for diagnostic. T_T |

I'm beginning to have problems as well, my SSD is occasionally not booting and causing blue screens. I need to get a new drive soon and back it up before it completely dies on me, if it turns out that's what's happening. |

I had the same issue Shadow, and it turned out there was no air circulating to the SSD, and it kept overheating. If you have any vents or anything, try cleaning them and dusting off the SSD and all that. As for the video issues... I often have the same problem when I work in my computer. Inevitably I knock a wire loose or bump a stick of RAM or something silly like that, and I have to go through part by part until I find out what I did. :\ |

Whelp, just got back from the shop tonight. It'll be tomorrow before the thing is fixed. Apparently part of the problem is that the "new" card was defective. Now it's having different problems T_T |
