Hello,
I have an asus K70ab laptop with a 512mb AMD video card in it. Sometimes the laptop does not boot. If I take the card out and reseat it a couple of times, it will start up. I thought the problem was driver related, but now I'm starting to think the card is going bad. Do video cards go bad in this way? It works 100% fine when it does boot, as long as you don't power off.
