My old pc has a Nvidia EVGA 7800GT... The graphic card overheats, and crashes when trying to update driver. Is it because of the Graphic card Overheating? or could it be something else. I know when i touch it, it burns my finger :/.... I just hope its nothing else otherwise ill be wasting around 60 bucks on a Gcard for nothing.
