Trouble shooting your graphics card is fairly straight forward, if you have extra equipment handy. If not it's a little harder. If you have no video the issue could be
- Monitor is bad
- Cable between the monitor and video card is bad
- Video card is bad
- GPU slot on board is bad.
if you don't have an extra cable or monitor to check and don't have the means to borrow one, your next step is a pc tech.
If it is the motherboard you will hear post beeps when booting, however sometimes with after factory video cards they will not post beep will they go.
