I recently bought a HIS HD3850 512MB graphics card and its been working great till this afternoon. When I turn the PC on theres no output from the card to the monitor. The computer fully boots as I can hear the windows sounds and there are no error beeps during the boot up, just no monitor output.
I've tried switching monitors, switching DVI ports on the back and trying to get into the BIOS but nothings displayed on the screen, so its definitly not a monitor or a cable problem. The fact that windows boots as normal makes me think that its related to the card. I've checked its still recieved 6pin power- it displays a red message when its not getting power, but I can't get anything to show on the monitor anymore. I've also tried taking out the card and reseating it but no help. I'm back on my old x850 for the time being which still works fine. The only thing I can think of is my stock power supply of 350W isn't enough but that wouldn't explain the card running fine for the week previously.
Has anyone else experienced like this, is there anything else I can try or shall I just RMA it?
Cheers
