    Hello all, I have a question about some video issues I have been having of late. My system is a D900K running a Geforce Go 7800 GTX. Recently I have changed my motherboard (as the fans had stopped working and it was crashing every 20 minutes or so). Now I have experienced some black screens during both normal usage and gaming (graphic intensive). The rest of the computer seems to continue working. I then have trouble rebooting. Sometimes there is no video at all and sometimes the screen goes white. I have been able to regain video by reseating the graphics card but sometimes must make multiple efforts to succeed. Does this sound like it is just a connection problem or does it sound like my graphics card is dying a slow death? If it is dying, what are my replacement options and where can I find them? BTW, I am currently living in China. Any hlep would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
