I left my pc for downloading windows update for about 4 hours. I pressed the off button of the monitor, when i came back i switched it on but i could get no display except for the dell logo of monitor and then monitor back to sleep. I pressed button on keyboard to wake the screen but still no display.
I switched off the pc and turned it back on still no display.
The graphics card fan and all other fans and lights are working fine
I plugged the dvi cable from graphics card to integrated dvi port there was no display but when i took the graphics card out i got the display on rebooting. Does this mean my graphics card is dead.
 
Solution
It could be dead, but best way to test it would be to try your GPU in other PC and see if it runs.
I would try that as 1st step.
