having a real fun computer issue where my computer clearly boots up, all the lights turn on and everything that takes power from the tower lights up, and my main monitor clearly powers on, it shows its little boot up screen, and then, the monitor just, shows nothing at all from the computer
I've done so much turning things off and then back on again and unplugging things and replugging things to try and force the display to one of the other monitors but it's all blank
just about the only thing I haven't tried is reverting my monitors back to my pre-tablet set-up since that involved plugging the primary monitor into a different port on the graphics card that is now taken by the tablet, but I can't find the HDMI cord I used for that
I'm worried my graphics card might have died. it's got the blue light on it, but that just means it's got power, that doesn't guarantee that it's actually working
the graphics card I picked out as a good one when Dawntrail's specs dropped is about 200 bucks right now, I don't know if there's a better choice anywhere and I don't know if I have the willpower to do more research stuck on my phone
