hello
sorry for my English but I am Spanish.
I know that this post is a bit old but I think I have a
similar problem.

is to ask you some questions and see if you can help me?

my problem is that my computer crashed my 9800GT
and then crashed another graph more ...

I'm waiting for a GTS250 but I can not be what damaged the cards?

I think it's the motherboard, but I'm not sure ...

what do you think?
it was your problem?

thank you very much
