get red lines across the screen. i opened the case and noticed that
the card is getting very hot and that the fan is not working. the fan
is plugged in though. any ideas on what may be causing this?

Fan failed. Get a replacement VGA cooler from your local PC store.

Clean the damn fan thang! Maybe a little oil on the fan shaft wouldn't hurt.
