I'm superduper sad!

Cuz my loyal PC just died :<
Well not rly died, my loyal ATI Radeon 9800XT just died after about 4 or 5 years of loyal service to me :<
I think i fried it during my last 3o3 :'(
this is what it looked like just before it crashed and refused to start up anything!

But for some reason my pc still plays movies so i'll just use it as my movie centre from now on!
RIP my ATI Radeon 9800 XT <3

maybe you can give it a last try, try replacing the cooler on it, maybe the gfx-cooler just didn't run anymore, causing an overheat ;)
hmm cud do, i think it did overheat seeing when it crashed and i took it out it was basically too hot to touch :P but i think it's pretty fried, let it cool down tried to run some shit nothing worked so ;< guess replacing the cooler wouldn't help that much :P
Parent
no, if it doesn't even start after a cooldown anymore, then it's certanly RIP. You can also try going to your local computerstore, and see if they can arrange a refurbished version for you, that can save you a lot of money ;)

just send it back and get a new card for free? np

Bought a 6600 a few years ago, since then, for free:

6600GT -> 6800U -> 7900GT -> 7950GTX
psst... this is the way i get a new mice from time to time... :-p

m$ laser 6000 -> m$ habu -> m$ habu -> random optical laptop mice which is actually working

sorry bill!
