Did my card just die?

I use an HD 4850, had it since Sept 09 and its worked fine.

Recently though once or twice before when I've tried to wake my comp up from it being asleep, I won't get a signal on my monitor. A hard reboot fixed it those couple of times, but this time it just wouldn't give a signal :/

I tried the other DVI output and got no results, I hooked up my comp to my TV to see if it was maybe the monitor itself, but still no signal.

I've installed my old 9600GT using the same wires and PCI-e slot and I get a signal just fine with this.

With the 4850 the comp does start up, because I hear the windows noise from the speakers and the welcome tune, just no signal.

So, has it died on me? :/ Any suggestions on what I could try?
