I hope we're talking about the same thing here, there should be no thin film covering the fan, you should be able to touch the fan vanes and the vents should be clear of any obstruction.A True Folder, does removing this clear plastic packaging film ruin the card? Because when I got mine it was like some what off so I just pulled the rest out as it wouldn't stick.
Did you check there is nothing over the fan as above?Thanks for the replies, the card is exactly how I got it a few months ago, I havent removed anything.
Assuming that there is no plastic film etc involved I would suggest RMA, if you're not getting a picture (not even bios?) then the card is faulty
Bonus, they "should" step you up to a 9800 series or if you're really lucky a 2xx seriesAlso is it even possible to get this replaced as I believe the 8800GTS has reached EOL. I got it from scan and they no longer have it listed on their site.
