Okay this is really weird. I turned off my comp for one night, i normally leave it on all the time fine, and when i turned it on this morning it doesnt recognize my graphics card. In device manager it shows only the onboard graphics from my mobo and not the graphics card i put in. I have done countless restarts with my graphics card working but now it just doesnt seem to be there. The fan on it spins and everything, but the monitor doesnt come on when plugged into it.

Any suggestions as to why this happened or how to fix it are greatly appreciated :D

ok ill try that. I actually only put the card in recently tho ive had the comp for a while. I dont think its ever actually been off with this card in it, just restarted. Ill post back with results.

Edit: Actually i have just decided to take out the card as i dont do anything video intensive on this PC anyway so the onboard video should work fine.
