Hi everyone

I baught a second hand MSI GTX 560 TI TWIN FROZR 3 HAWK

it was fully working but really dusty.


I openned it up as I do usually and cleaned out the dust and replaced the thermal paste that was dry.


I have put everything back and now the card doesnt boot up.

The fans run normaly and the led lights turn on ( the card has some leds like motherboards)

I have reopened the card and put it back in the motherboard without the heatsink to see if the processor will heat ... and it does.

I know its not the motherboard since it works with my other cards and I tried to resset cmos jumper without any success.


Do you have an idea on what to do next.
