Dead Video Card?
In the other computer is a NVidia Geforce 5600. And I think it died. I know it's not the monitor since I was able to hook it up to my laptop.

It was probobly a loose Video card. That can happen especially if the cable is moved.

That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone, bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby

Glad it's working! I hate video card issues. They can be a pain. For future reference, moving the video card to another slot (if it's not an AGP card) can help smack the computer into some semblance of reality.
