Monitor goes into power saving mode only when connected to the gpu ports

[thadvladbow1089]

I have had my graphics card for a few years and I have always plugged the monitor into the gpu ports with an hdmi cord. But recently it just stopped connecting to the gpu through those ports and in order to use my computer I have to plug the hdmi cord into the motherboard. I bought the computer premade.

XPS 8500
Bios A12

It is quite possible that your graphics card no longer works.
Have you pulled it out and tried it in another computer?
