After about 30 minutes of open world questing in WoW my screen turned black for a second before reappearing with cracks moving up and down the sides of the screen. This is however only a problem while playing. So i tried restarting my pc twice, without any success. I looked for a update on the driver using both MSI live update and the detect new drivers function on Nvidias website. Nvidia couldnt find the graphic card at all and MSI says that my graphic card is the integrated graphic card; Intel (R) HD Graphics 4600.

Device manager on my pc says the same as MSI.

The graphics card that is plugged in a MSI geforce gtx 970 gaming 4gb and has been working properly from the start, ca 3 years ago. I tried moving it from one socket to another on the motherboard without any results. The card is receiving electricity as the light is turned on, however, the fans are not spinning.

So the question is really, is my graphic card fried or is this the result of a setting/update gone wrong that i can fix? Thankful for any help.
