hi, well im new to this forum and have two problems which need resolving.
firstly the more important of the two. today my graphics card died its and inno3d nvidia 6800gt. been fine for the 3/4 months ive had it and today my computer just shut down i then smelt something burning had a look around inside computer wasnt sure what was wrong so restarted. the system seemed to boot up fully except for no display. i'm kinda convinced its the card and im just curious as to whther anyone could tell me whether there would b any chance of a replacement or anything if i tried.
secondly; before the graphics card went i kept getting a very random problem of the cursor arrow just freezing on the screen but i can still move around with the mouse and click things but not see where the mouse is.
thanks for help and time to read this
specs if needed:
asus a8n-e nforce 4
amd athlon 3700+
nvidia 6800gt (rip)
2gig ram
and not sure of the make 500w psu
also the mouse is microsoft and a ps2 connection
