umm yeah ur card is pretty much dead. same thing happened to my 9800np. that's a result of handling the card incorrectly/too much. go order a new card. or RMA whichever u prefer.
Sometimes those heatspreaders that are around the core will hold the new block off the core just a couple of millimeters but that is enough to keep your block from making good contact. Just use some dental floss and start at one corner and slide it back and forth and you can pop that sucker off in no time.
Good Luck
