The doctors say his chances are 50/50...but there's only a 10% chance of that. |
So my old Nvidia 8800 GTS 640 video card is dead. The other one I have functions fine, but this one is no longer functional. So I need some advice and tips on what to do next. I was considering using a sledgehammer, or even just setting it on fire.
I am open to suggestions. El Psy Congroo |

Found a link if you want to give it a shot, you may damage your card... but if its dead already lol, it's not like you can make it much worse. |
