I've never had a computer in my life before last year so I am completely in the dark on what to do. It is custom built, I don't really know anything else as it was a gift. My graphics card is making a rattling noise and I opened up the tower and listened to make sure this was it. When I turn the computer on, the monitor cuts in and out until it is completely passed the windows start up. Then is fine, apart from the noise. Also I just downloaded the Sims 3 to play and it crashed as soon as it loaded. It said it couldn't recognize my graphics card. Wondering if I need a new one and the steps to fix it if I can.
Please help...
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
