    My Gateway 600 YGR will not boot, I will hear the fan running but the screen is blank.

    It now starts and runs for some time (depending on the temp) then it freezes. The colder the yemp the longer it runs, would run anywhere from 10 to 90 min.
    What would the first thing to check , video card?
