I recently bought a 9800 pro from a member on the boards, had the computer on during the weekend while I was out for christmas, when I came back the computer was locked up with a blank screen. I restarted the computer and nothing, the mouse and keyboard never even lit up, the screen found a signal and clicked on but no picture ever came up and eventually the monitor went back to sleep.
Anyone else ever have this happen, is the card junk now? Is there something to look for on the card? The heatsink stillworks on the card, it is a VGA silencer and the card was not overclocked.
I assume it is dead, but hopefully someone can suggest something else. Oh the reason I knew it was the video card is the lights that the computer flashed during boot up.
