Graphics card causing screen to shut down
Basically this happened about two weeks back, while I was playing a non graphic intensive game : League of Legends my screen shut off, my mic worked for the next 10 seconds and after that the last audio was played into a loop over and over again and I had to force restart my PC, I went to the reliability history and it was a BCCode 117. But today the same thing happened, my screen went blank, I couldn't turn it back on, my graphics card fan wasn't working, but every other fan was on, and there was an audio playback loop. I restarted the PC but when I opened up the reliability history there was no error whatsoever and now it doesn't just happen when I play my games but it happens even when I just leave my screen on. My graphics card would just die.

Thanks for the help :) 

EDIT : My specs for my PC

CPU - AMD Athlon X4 750K
GPU - Sapphire HD 7750 1GB GDDR5
Motherboard - MSI FM2-A75MA-E35
RAM - Corsair PC3 12800

I just checked it again with my case open and it seems like the problem is actually the graphics card fan not spinning. Windows can detect the graphic card, it's working, but the fan isn't spinning, so looks like it's shutting down because of overheating problems but I still don't know how to solve it. Can someone help please?
Thanks
