Hello
My computer just died on me. Prior to its death it was making screeching sounds
when i restarted the machine, i listened closely and i think it was the video card (Gigabyte GeForce FX 5700 Ultra) which was making the sounds.
i turned off the machine and then blew hard on the video card's fan to remve any of the "gooeey"(?) stuff on it.
this time around it starts detects all the drives and then after displaying the message "verifying DMI Pool Data" the screen just goes blank.
the computer does not seem to freeze at this message, but this message "verifying DMI Pool Data" disappears and then then nothing else happens.
i tried the DVI connector as well as the regular RGB(?) connector.
do you guys think it is the video card, hard disk or the mobo? what should i do now. please help!!
i have 2 hard disks
an 80 gig maxtor
and a 160 gig wd
and my mobo is a gigabyte 81875 ultra
