Can my GTX 770 be fixed?

Hi

I'm having trouble with my GTX 770 it shows blue dots on the screen and occasionally crashes the computer. I'm sure it's the card because when I took it out and used the integrated graphics on the cpu the screen looks fine. I ran "dxdiag" (to double check my specs to make this post) it showed me error code 43. I googled It but it seems quite vague. I've uninstalled the card and reinstalled the drivers with no change. I installed some older drivers from nvidia but that didn't help either. Is there anything else I can do to fix it? Or is it just broken? I'd appreciate any help.

 

My PC specs:

OS: Windows 10 Home 64-bit

Processor: i5-4690 3.5GHz (4 cores)

RAM: 8Gb

Graphics Card: NVIDIA GTX 770 (with msi branding if that helps)

And what about the PSU?
Try and remove the power plug (if any) from the graphics card and put it back.

Make sure the system is powered of before hand.

When i ask for more specs, don't expect me to know the answer!

The PSU seems fine as far as I can tell. I've taken the card out, unplugged it and put it back in with no change. I was hoping it had just come loose or something. Unfortunately I don't have another PC to try it in.

Good Idea. Just tried a different cord unfortunately the card still didn't work.
