    S yesterday my pc doesn't want to load windows, it goes as far as windows logo and then auto reset while on monitor appears 'no signal' msg.
    When I examined the inside of the case I noticed that due to the weight of my graphic card(GTX280 with heatsink & water cooling) the primary PCI-E slot is bent. So not knowing much about hardware my question is can I use one of the other 2 slots as a primary? Could this damage affect the performance of the mobo or the graphic card?
    Thanks
