unless internal power shorts/high voltage were somehow routed straight to
the video cable sets/connectors, it is unlikely to cause damage

Anything is possible, but in my expirence a bad monitor won't hurt a video

can a malfunctioning computer monitor harm the computer's video card in
anyway? If the monitor goes completely black, can that harm the card if
the computer is left running? Thanks.
