Hello everyone..this is my first post 
I have a GTX 295 from EVGA and I have had it for about a year and a half now and it was working fine until 2 days ago.
I turn the PC on, i get 1 long beep and 2 or 3 short beeps...no video at all, just black screen. I looked up the code and it seems to be a video card issue which makes sense. The weird thing is that Windows loads fine, as i noticed if I leave the computer on, I hear the Windows Startup Chime come through the speakers. This seems weird to me, as I have never seen a card go bad but Windows still loads.
Any ideas if this card is fixable? Maybe something simple?
I tried the card in another computer and the same thing happens
I tried another video card and it works fine, so I know its the card.
I checked both PCI-E voltage connectors and I get 12 volts
I am running Windows 7
Basicly I am just hoping for a easy fix, but if everyone thinks it's toast, then so be it.
Thanks!
Rich
