It does have a fan. And I did clean it from the dust but still vibrates.

Is it a PCI card? Or is it attached with screws, or something? I'd remove
then reseat it. If that doesn't work, then what else could it be but the fan? The fan has probably gone out of balance somehow. Maybe there's an insect in there somewhere, or something chewed off a piece of a blade, or whatever. It wouldn't take much to throw the fan blades out of balance. To test that theory, presumably you could unplug the fan briefly (a few seconds) to see if the vibration stops without harming anything. -- Euc1id "No.6" wrote in message ... radeon 32megs SD |

I just bought a GEFORCE 4 MX420 video card for about 40.00 including
shipping and handling. And no fan. so no freaky dickey noise to worry about. |
