Hi All!
I'm at my wits end tonight, so I'm taking to the boards here, hopeful someone can give me some advice. I recently removed the guts of my PC from one old PC case to a new one. I reinstalled everything the same way it was setup prior.
It was great at first run. Everything was squeaky clean after a reformat and an install, etc. It ran perfect for about 24 hours.
Now, for some reason yesterday, it decided to stop sending a signal to my monitors. Same setup, no changes, just won't display. The MOBO POST test (my board has lights) doesn't stop anywhere, reading all systems go. I thought it might be my GPU, so I dropped 320.00 on a new card today, only to get the same result. I have retested every connection, I have reseated the wires and I have moved my RAM around, dropping from 4 gigs from 8 and only using one Ram Unit at a time. The good news is that it's not the RAM or the GPU at this point, same result no matter what. What I'm afraid of is that I now have a defective mobo, but I'm not sure how to tell. There is no integrated card that I could find in the manual (I have the Sabertooth board with an I5 sandy bridge processor) but I'm fairly positive nothing is wrong with my monitors.
Any additional suggestions by chance?
Thanks!!!
