Solve : graphics card failure?

Answer»

I have a DELL 5150c desktop, running windows xp with all the latest service pack updates.  The computer froze while viewing a virtual tour of a vacation rental, not reaction from ctl-alt-delete. Finally just powered the computer off.  Now it won't BOOT, although the fan, etc runs.  The diagnostic lights ( 2 + 4) indicate graphics card failure. Unfortunately, as far as I can TELL, there is no actual graphics card in these units that can be removed and replaced.  It does, however, contain slots for PCI Express cards.  My question is, could adding a card solve my problem or would the failed onboard graphics interfere with the functionality of the new card?
