This doesn't sound particularly good. It would suggest to me that your
graphics card (the GPU) is no longer attached to the PCI bus. Probably
the best case scenario is that this is a physical problem: Open up your
computer, pull out the card and push it back in, making sure it's fully
seated.
If the problem persists, then it may be that the card is locking up
completely such that the PCI bus THINKS you've pulled it out. You may
find monitoring the output of "nvclock -T" useful.
