Ironically, I was measuring the inside of my computer with a metal ruler, to see if the new graphics card I want to buy will fit in my computer.
While measuring, I touched the graphics card and parts of the motherboard around it with the metal ruler.
As lazy as I am, I did it while the PC was running.
Now my graphics card doesn't work.
I believe it doesn't deliver any output, since the screen says "power saving mode". (Not the same message as if the cable is disconnected though...)
Everything works well if I plug the screen straight into the motherboard.
Did I completely ruined my graphics card?
Are there any solutions I can try?
Thanks
