    I fried my GPU and I bought another one on ebay.

    0RDRGR RDRGR 216 0811030 HD6990M HD 6990M 2G MXM3 0 DDR5 VGA Video Card FOR Dell | eBay

    This is the one.

    I didnt know until after I bought it that dell/alienware are not supposed to work in clevo laptops.

    What happens is that I start up and once windows logo is shown the laptop starts beeping and the NUM, CAP and SCROLL Lock lights flash and then in about 20 seconds it will shut down.

    Did I buy the wrong card or can I salvage this?
