I found your problem, you are using a computer/monitor that still has VGA(D-Sub) inputs, please upgrade your potato...

OP used Q-tips(WTF) to clean out dust from a computer whilst cousin fondled pets and discharged...something...in the process.  Now there is no output from the video card but onboard video does work

So I think your on screened about static ruining the card becae he let his pet then touched the card well if you turn on the system and the fan on the card turns on its fine try using the other ports

I think he said he has a vga adopter like DVI to VGA

If static charge damaged the card, you would likely see deformed images and colors on the display rather than nothing at all.

You may have killed your card by static, in the future, use compressed air to clean your computer, and keep away from pets and carpets. This is a piece of electronics, not something you can be willy-nilly with.

Try the card in another computer, if the problem persists the card is likely toast

Try turning on the integrated graphics card.

Also, is it a laptop or a desktop/tower?

If I said I were 14, you would call me a kid. If I say 70, you’ll entitle me too old. If I say 20 you say I’m inexperienced and if I say 40 than I'm too boring.
