huh so my graphics card in there has fucked up or something? cause I know it had one lol -.-

 

do i have to open it up to check my power supply?

Yeah you don't actually have a graphics card lol, there's only your onboard video which is built into your CPU.

You will have to take the side-panel off your case, but that's easy, you don't need to turn off or anything.

well its a 3 year old computer, so surprised not everything needs to be replaced tongue.png. But i opened it up and checked and confirmed i do have a radeon hd 6780 graphics card, just no clue as to why its not working anymore. I guess my best bet is just take it to a store tomorrow.

 

Also i tried to take some pics, but everything i tried the pics ended up being too large to be uploaded here lol -.-

Try upload to Imgur then post the link to the image tongue.png

That's rather strange though, have you plugged in your monitor cable (DVI/VGA/HDMI) to your GPU, not the motherboard?

I'm willing to bet that's a poorly built shop system. I was correct, that PSU is a low end one that can harm your system.

On the plus side, I know why your graphics card isn't "working" lol, you didn't plug the display cable into it.

In this picture, I've highlighted your graphics card ports, you should find a port similar on the back of your motherboard, unplug it from your motherboard and plug it into your graphics card.
