Hammer on the video card ? gasoline and match ? or is a fix

ok ...1 month ago after starting the pc in the morning - i get this type of shitty display

gived me NVIDIA Graphic Card disabled - error Code 43 in windows at first - tought it was the drivers - reinstalled clean the windows - after that, same shitty display - in windows -no errors - just that nvidia card is not recognized anymore and resolution is 640 480 or some shit like that

lucky me i had two cards : a 460 GTX (that works great - for playing mario) and the GTX 580 that causing me display problems

my question is ? the GTX 580 is really burned that gives shitty display ? i don't have what to do with her anymore ? or is a fix or something ? because it bugs me out if it was/is burned - how the fuck it starts but with bad display

I'd check it in another PC before determining.
if it is ruined - probably some bad capacitors.. they're always the culprit

don't have a functionable other pc - altough i have spare parts for 2 more pc's i think..overhere...i've asked a friend of mine to try'it when it will come back to the hometown - but i'm 90 sure is wasted -thanks for feedback buddy

[anon]

Believe it or not, this problem can often be solved by heating your card at 200°C in the oven for several minutes.

Of course, do attempt to exhaust all other possibilities first.

I have this problem exactly 2 days ago. I got my card out and alone for now and too afraid of the heating solution. Someone told me i have to get rid of the hdmi cable and use dvi one and the problem will be solved. Will try the cables solution soon and let you know.

i've used'it only on dvi -until the problems appeared- somebody suggested me to try on hmdi- wich is minihdmi on me- but when i've tried it was resulting in no signal via hdmi -fucking nvidia - next will be radeon - if i manage to find one on the market since the miners bulk buy of readeon video cards
