I've been having this problem for a couple days now, and my Alienware Area-51 750i is turning on but doesn't show any display. I have not encountered any problems like this, but my computer does overheat which then crashes.
1. I've used ram on each slot 1 by 1.
2. I cleaned the computer out.
3. i Attempted to clear C-mos, but nothing happened.
4. I switched monitors, used different cords for the pc and monitors.
5. I changed the graphics cards and started up without one... for some reason.
6. I made sure the power supply is working.
7. i started up with just the CPU,1 stick of ram,and gpu.
8. Also my Computer's Power button stopped working when this incident occured.
9.I hold the (power button that doesn't work but lights up) for 30 sec.
10.I did seem to smell some smoke during some processes
Might i have the replace the motherboard? Which i have a Asus P5N-D mb.
Thank you for your responses, if any
