unplug the monitor from the card, make sure all the pins are there and straight, not bent, plug it back in, see if that works

remember when we all had the game systems that you would have to blow out the plugs and cartrages? do that. open up your cpu case and just blow out the pci connection or change the pci port. thatn blow out the cable and port for the cable.
