Is your Dell OptiPlex 9010 system having issues like visual glitches on the screen, crashing and blue screens? It may be time to replace your graphics card. This component is responsible for handling graphics related work like effects and videos.

It's a relatively easy fix, but be sure to ground yourself by touching the computer's metal casing to protect the components from static. As long as you ground yourself this way, the installation won't require any special skills, and your computer will be running smoothly.

Before beginning this repair, be sure to power off your device and unplug it from all power sources.
