Well I was getting ready to play a game of Age of empires 3 when suddenly both of my monitors went blank, before resetting I looked in my case and saw my GPU had a red light, normally green

So I thought it might have overheated? but anyway I turned it off by holding down the power button and tried turning it back on, it didn't work at first but I let it rest for about 5 minutes and tried it again, this time it turned on but when I got into windows...

first it said "You have no dual monitor support"
2nd The res got reset to 800x600
3rd GPU-z Doesn't see my graphics card
4th if I right click my desktop there is no nVidia control panel...so is my graphics card done?
thanks for the help

all I know is that it's a 750Watt toughpower, I'm not sure where to find the model number for it, I'll try the safemode option now

EDIT: Nope safemode was the same, didn't see the card at all

Yup they are all connected correctly, I put my old 9800gx2 in and it works fine so I'm guessing it is the 295, guess I'll give EVGA a call tomorrow and get an RMA

Thank you both for helping
