Hi I'm having trouble with my computer, I strongly think it is my video card but would like to have outside opinions on the matter before doing a purchase.
It all started yesterday when I opened my computer "your video card power cord is not connected please re-connect it" I look its connected. I shut down, deconnect reconnect. It works.
I wake up today open the thing, same darn thing.
I go to deplug replug I hit a small piece. Falls off (OK i know... its most likely this but would like if you continue reading anyways in case the current problem is something else)
Open the computer anywayz.
The screen is black with lines /redgreen/blue in a repetitive pattern across the screen.
Could it be something else than my video card?
