Nvidia GeForce 8500 GT

Ok I had this card for almost a year without any problems. Yesterday i was playing Crysis and the graphics went hokey and the computer froze. Went to reboot and and the Integrated graphics take over. I tired to re-install the drivers but that was a no go. Re-formatted my hard drive (was over due for one anyways) and still a no go. I put in my old card and it worked fine. I get this error when I check it out, This device cannot start. (Code 10). I looked out this code and it tell me that I need to Assign IRQ to VGA under my BIOS, but lam a Dell so the BIOS options are very limited. Is there any other way to do this, or anything i can do to solve this problem? The card still gets power as the fan comes on.

Thanks in Advance,
Shane
