Hi. I just built a PC with GTX 750 Ti, was working fine for about 3 days. Today I was playing a game, and suddenly it all went to black. Now when I load PC, I only see "Starting Windows" and it's just the black screen past that. Tried 2 different monitors, and two different cables (DVI and HDMI). PC is working as far as I can tell (everything seems on), so I just don't get the picture probably.

Is it a faulty GTX? Should I send it back to Newegg, or what do I do about it?

Try doing a clean installation of drivers after un-installing the older ones then make sure the Graphics card is properly seated.

Last but not least if your motherboard has multiple PCIe 8x or more then try plugging it in another PCIe.

Okay, I found it! Through the process of elimination.

It's the HDMI cable.

Whenever I plug it in (and I already have DVI in for the primary monitor), the picture disappears. What is that? Why is this happening? It was working fine just a few hours ago, and now every time it's plugged it, the picture disappears. If I unplug the HDMI, the picture reappears on the primary (DVI) monitor again.

Anybody?

Faulty HDMI Cable.
