Fan not working

I noticed that the fan attached to my Radeon 9800 Pro doesn't move. Would this cause my PC to freeze and reboot itself?

    Hi there, i had the same problem, same card as yours would freeze and crash especially during games. My temp way of solving it was sticking a small room fan blowing into the side of the case, instant no freezing or crashing which you can conclude has something to do with the fan, it wasn't moving :(. All you need to do is change it and it will be fine but leave it long enough without doing anything and you could damage the vid card or other components of your PC

It can. but it can be a number of problems as well. How long has it been since you cleaned out your computer? How long have you had the computer? Do you play a lot of games where the video card would be used a lot? Here's some things that you can do to maybe fix your problem. 1. goto: start -> run type in "msconfig" goto the last tab "startup" and disable all. restart computer 2. goto: start -> all programs -> accessories -> system tools Now...in this menu you'll want to do 2 things "clean disk" and "defrag" (both of which will most likely take hours of doing) 3. Get a heatsink to put on the video card where the fan was and that should do the same thing as long as you have a good fan in the PC. On another note, you could probably get another fan to put in your system (especially if you like to play a lot of games on your PC)

The card needs to be connected to a power source within the case, the main power supply, otherwise it will shut the computer down when it overheats. Make sure the fan on the card is moving.

Most likely you can not replace just the fan on this card. If it is possible your best source for getting an actual replacement is going to be the ATI website. Search for repair or replacement parts on that site.

Ati radeon 9800 error message on bootup
the error means that you do not have a power cod connected on the card or the power supplied by the PS is not enough for the card to run.

Remove power from the parts in the PC that you are not using anymore and try to reinstall the card.

worst case is getting another power supply about 600 watts

Swap 9800 Pro for 9700 Pro
You must uninstall the current driver and reinstall the driver for the 9800 Pro first:
http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html
Power supply recommended is 300watt for each, so that is not a factor. It would have to be a driver conflict.

Replacing a Radeon 9800 Pro AGP graphic card
Axis 3000 is listed as 360w and this should just do as the card requires 350w. As you are going to Ebuyer anyway why not get a new PSU, they have a 450 watt PSU with a large fan for £16. Make sure you are getting the AGP version and not the PCI-E version of the card. I find eBuyer are usually open to replacing items and you could ask their tech support first.

Radeon 9800 freezes the screen
assuming you have done a recent spyware and antivirus scan incase of any trojans or worms running in the background taking up processor usage, you may have a driver problem, especially if you have recently fitted another graphics card and left the old card driver installed, you should uninstall the old driver before fitting the card and installing the new driver. take the side off your pc and make sure also that the heatsink fan on your processor is not clogged with dust and ensure there is plenty of air ventillation allowed by checking ide cables arent restricting the flow especially near the graphics card incase the card is overheating. to give a clue to the problem if it is software driver related go to control panel>administrative tools>event viewer, then in the left hand column look on the applications line and system line and see if there are any red crosses or exclamatiomn marks relating to what you wer doing or running at the time.
