Alright so I was just having problems with my XFX GeForce 9800 GT video card, the fan quit working, so I wrote to them. Later on in the same day I turned my PC on (keeping in mind I was running plenty of fans to keep the GPU cool for the short time i needed to check atleast my mail) before i knew it my GPU temp was at 130+ C and my pc blue screened and so i shut it off and let it cool. Today when i went to turn on my pc all i got was one little beep. I checked my fuses on the switch on my power supply, and wat watt that it was using. Still i only got a single beep everytime i hit the power button.
Extra Info: I was getting an odd screeching sound when i was on the internet.

ANY help would be great!!!

A single beep is usually the sign of a successful post, so the output on your video card might be fried. Check the cable connection between your card & monitor to make sure it hasn't come loose. Do you have another card to test? As for the screeching noise, was it constant or only when you scrolled? I had an AIW 9800 Pro that used to do that when the line in volume wasn't muted.

the screeching sound was when i scrolled i will try another card (no clue what that means). like i said XFX is sending me a new fan right now and if the other card works and the new fan doesnt help any, i'll make sure to get my video card replaced. if anyone else has something they think could be wrong please keep posting.
