I traded my pc for another pc which seemed to just be having a simple CMOS battery issue. Ther previous owners powered it off without shutting down and from then on they got a CMOS error on boot up. I put a recycled battery into it from my old laptop. turned it on. was asked to enter in the date time etc. booted back up. Looked like it was going okay, it asked me about starting windows normally safe etc. I choose normally and it went to the windows loading screen. then I walked away for a sec. when I came back it was off. I turned it on and it will act like it's going to load windows then the screen will go black. I noticed when I came back the video card was REALLY hot. So I did let it cool completly before I turned it back on. However I have noticed that everytime I try to boot it up the graphics card fan never budges...is it supoosed to? Is this a graphix card issue or anyone know what's going on here?
Any help is appreciated.
