    Hi all, I recently installed a new CPU cooler, and ever since my XFX ATI Radeon 5830 graphics card hasn't been working properly. At first the PC would not boot at all when the tower was upright, so I kept it flat on it's side, worked fine for a while. But whenever it was physically shifted a small bit, the screen would go fuzzy and the device drivers would stop working. A few times the screen would have vertical lines going across or go completely grey. I have had to take the graphics card out and am currently using the onboard graphics. Also it seemed to be wobbling in the slot in the motherboard, I'm not sure what the fault is with it. I don't have any other motherboards or graphics cards to try out in it.
