Hey guys, we had some serious high winds today and lost power multiple times. Like an idiot, I forgot to turn off the computer. I have no idea how many times it lost power. The computer is plugged into a surge protector power strip. Anyway, I turned it on tonight and my TV hooked up to it just keeps saying no video signal. I plugged in a monitor and it says the same. I’m pretty computer illiterate, but everything seems to be working. All fans and lights are on, light and fan for the graphics card are on, fan for the cooler on the CPU is on, but I’ve got no video. Did I fry my graphics card? I have no idea how to troubleshoot this. Any advice would be much appreciated.

I don't think it is a hardware issue. I think the OS on your boot drive may have been corrupted. You could try making a bootable USB. You would need to reinstall windows. All data on your boot drive would be erased, though. Hopefully, your important files are on your HDD.
