I am heavily depressed.
 
My graphics card I believe is really screwed up. I went down to my kitchen for some food, come back up, and to my surprise i have some Error about nvcdp.dll or w/e.. (that isnt exactly the error name) and that error spammed my computer, there were around 100 of them, i had to mash Enter to get rid of them.
 
And on top of the my Graphics Card told me (on a message) that its power input was low so it was going to lower is power consumption. That error you get when the Gcard isn't receiving enough juice.
 
So, i turn my comp off, take my Gcard out and to my surprise there is a sprinkly of water on it from my water cooling, the water landed on the far end of the Gcard where the power connectors connect. I take it out, clean my system out, reconnect it.
 
Now, no matter what, when I turn on my computer my Gcard screams at me, that loud ring it emits. Won't stop. I consulted a few electric experts and they told me that there isn't enough current to really blow out my Gcard, and for it to be killed by water there would have to be a burn chip or something of that sort.
 
The fan still spins, it still turns on, but it gives me no display and always gives me that loud whine.
 
Is it dead? There is no physical damage at all, and no watermarks, could I return it to MSI?  
 
My system now works because i have a nasty Radeon 1300 in it.  
 
So.. Is my 8800GTX OC dead? or can it be fixed?  

Try a different power connector... u did remember to plug that back in i hope?
 
What water additives do u use? My sys leaked while it was on for about a week. Water pooled on the gfx card and ran down the pci slots LOL.
Its still fine
 
Maybe try another psu 1st?

Well I need to find another PSU capable of running it None of my relatives have such PSU's and I gotsa no moneys.  
 
I will have to give that a shot. I don't see how my PSU cannot handle it randomly, I mean, It ran perfectly fine since October.
 
Is there a Chance the Water that landed on the water made my PSU Weaker? I really don't want my G-card to be dead lol, such an expensive component to replace.
 
As for water, I don't really know. Its green, and thats it. The bottle doesn't say anything other then its water from the "Stingray water cooling kit"
 

Probably that water killed your PSU's 12V rail, or just simply fried your card. I don't know what experts you asked, but water on a card always means the possibility of frying it.

Give it 24-48 hours of drying time.

Clean your card as best as you can, leaving no residue. Clean your pci slots, again leave no residue. If that doesnt help, then you should somehow check all other componants, like mobo, psu etc because your gpu is the most costly part in your system

On an 8800GTX there is plenty of power coming onto that card to fry it, i dont know what people have been telling you. Two PCI Express connectors carrying 20A each @ 5V thats a mighty bit of power. Having said that, if that much power shorted out somehow (due to water), there would be smoke or at least electrical fire smell, and your computer would have just shut off due to the load on the power supply.
 
I would probably try the power supply.

Someone remind me why i won't do water again?

because of that

That's also why, if you are using water cooling, you power the PC from a GFCI outlet.

@Sacre, not to make light of your predicament, but @jay2tall: rofl.
 
If the shrieking is due to insufficient power, then it could very well be the PSU that was damaged.  If you need to get a new one, choose it from Tier-3 or better from the list at http://www.tomswiki.com/page/Tiere [...] gs?t=anon.

I was considering aqua cooling...but now I think I'll stick with air.

I have had water leak on my 8800GTS and I just let it dry overnight after blowing everything out with canned air.  Plugged it back in and WHAMO!  worked just fine.  ...except for that smell of coolant residue burning off...
 
Need to get better hoses and clamps, dude.

Alright, Well my PSU is the Antec Neo HE 550 with 3 12V rails @ 18A each.
 
Thing is, on the back of the PSU you get 5 plugs you can plug your cables into, i had the 2 PCI connectors on 2 specific ports. Since the incident, i've tried changing the cords to the other 3 connectors on the PSU and i still get the error.
 
If it were the PSU that blew, wouldn't it just be those 2 ports specifically? Or will it lack juice through any port that requires 12V etc..
 
I don't know if you understand lol

On the two modular PSU brands I've owned, the PCIe connectors plugged into specific jacks (color coded for them).

only way you're gonna be able to find out is by 1. plugging the card into another computer, 2. trying another PSU with your system, or 3. trying out another high-power card in your system.

 
So will I.

lol my Watercooling was supposed to stay outside my case, but for the 5 months of trustworthy function I decided to place it inside my case, The pump was actually leaking.  
 
Hmm... Do you think a local computer store would charge me a lot if I asked them to test my Gcard on one of their systems?  
 
I live in buttfook nowhere.

Yeah, one time one of my fans sprung a leak and I got air all over my motherboard. I had to dry that out for days and even though i got new fans, they leaked air too !

RC, I've noticed that anytime I've ever overclocked a cat with cat weed, the cat will shut down for an extended period shortly thereafter.

If you blew the psu, it wouldnt be just 1 rail, its the whole enchilada. Put your tongue on it? JK, dont do that
