pull the graphics card out and plug the monitor into the motherboard. see if you get a screen then.

if that doesn't work unplug the computer, clr_cmos, wait a few minutes and try again.

if that doesn't work unplug all the devices from the motherboard, then pull out all but 1 stick of ram, restart, if you stil have no visual, try with another stick of ram, still nothing try a different slot, try all the ram in all the slots one at a time.

try a different psu.

take the motherboard out of the computer and make sure the spacers are in correctly, and the motherboard isn't grounding out on anything, pull the cpu out and make sure its put in correctly, place the mb back into the case and try again.

If nothing works you have either a bad...

If nothing works you have either a bad motherboard or bad cpu.

Thx i will try your technics but i don't have any graphic card. Also, i just came back from the USA and all worked there... Do you think it is due to the plane ?
 


whenever you move a computer a long distance and it's out of your hands always break it down and reassemble it. because you don't know what happened to it. I would start with the motherboard/cpu step, then pull out the ram and put one stick back in. then clr_cmos. make sure you don't attach anything to it other then the monitor, no pci cards, no hard drives, no disk drives. see if it will POST. then reattach stuff one at a time. starting with the rest of the ram. turn it on, see if it will POST, then add another part of the hardware. keep going till you're up and running.
