i have had good results when i could renew the heat paste on the video chip - so worth a try
while doing this, renew the cpu heatpaste also, and of course, clean the system from dust, and verify the fans are running ok

please see new img attached; sometimes when i restart, the screen splits into 4.
btw, under device manager i can't see the model of graphic card anymore. it should say nvidia gtx 580 . now it only shows "vga standard...".
what's the best way to test the graphic card?
