[Brian Kong]

My graphics card work fine on 2 p.m and I shut my pc down, but when I start it up again,my monitor says 'No Signal', is the graphics card died or what??

My graphics card is Sapphire AMD RADEON R7 240 GDDR5 1GB ,

Here's my pc specs..

HP Compaq CQ3614D

Processor: Intel Core I3-2100

RAM: DDR3 6GB 1333Mhz.

Please help, or I'll need to wait for it to come back again..It takes more than 1 month for sending back for warrenty..

It could be many things.
When you power on the PC, does it sound like it is starting up normally (fans, hard drive noises)?
Is there any beeping?
Can you see the BIOS start-up screens before Windows starts?

Well, of course, check all the plugs and cables, and swap them around as much as possible, remove and reseat the card after cleaning the PCI slot and cards connectors, and try the card in another PCI slot, if available. If none of that helps, you can remove the card and attach the video cable to the motherboard video port (your CPU has integrated, though poor, graphics), you *may* need to reset the BIOS, depending on the board as sometimes the onboard doesn't automatically reenable as it should.

To do that you can use the clear CMOS jumper with the PC powered OFF (refer to manual for the board) or remove the CMOS battery for a few minutes then replace it (large flat silver watch battery on the board, with the PC powered OFF). If the onboard video works you know to focus on the video card. If it doesn't then most likely you have a cable or port issue with your monitor. That's all assuming that the PC is, in fact, booting fully and just not getting video.
