My computer have been working for quite a long time now, then one day when i switch on my computer my monitor turns on but does not show anything except for the analog/digital word on top of the screen. my monitor is plugged directly to my graphics card, so when i try to unplug and then try to plugged the blue cable( the D-shaped cable) to the built in port not in the graphics card it shows display and all but its all way to big. i mean it displays large images and i cant even play any games or view pictures/videos.. is this problem connected to my graphics card? can anyone help?

Start by uninstalling your Graphics Card drivers:

Go to Control Panel > System > Device Manager > Display Adapters > Right-Click Graphics Card and select 'Properties' > Click 'Drivers' Tab > Select 'Uninstall'.

Then go to Control Panel > Programs and Features > Add / Remove Programs > Look for any programs in the list with the name of your Graphics Card manufacturer and right-click them then select 'Uninstall'.

Boot the computer and proceed to your Graphics Card's manufacturer's website where you should download the latest (non-Beta) Drivers for your Graphics Card (ensure you have the right Operating System and version). Install those Drivers.

Re-install your Graphics Card into your case and / or reenable the PCI-E x16 slot via your motherboard's BIOS.

Hopefully the card will work now.
