Hello guys, today i was relocating some stuff in my room and decided to move my desktop computer to somewhere else. When i plugged in all the cables i noticed that the monitor receives no vga signal. The first thing i tried was trying other monitors and vga cables. So the problem is not with the monitor and the cable. I realized that the interior of the case was pretty dusty. So i cleaned it off. I also took off the GPU and rams and cleaned them from dust. But nothing worked. The PC boots but i am getting no vga signal. I am getting 1 short 1 long beep while booting the computer.
1 short beep 1 long beep. No vga signal. Help please.

Yep the sound indicates the card could not be found in the Pci-e slot of the motherboard.
And needs to be re seated.
Or the card requires it`s 12v Pci-e power connectors plugged into the card gain for extra power.
If the second tone is longer and does not go away. look for a 12v Pci-e connector on the graphics card.

Has the beep gone away then. and you have a display output from the card now ?
If it`s still not posting have a look and a check of your main system memory in the motherboard slots of the board.
Make sure they are all pushed in the slots flush and fully down. You may of knocked them while dusting.
It`s the only other sound I know is made when a board has a single then long beep sound.
Error in memory detection. Let me know if it sorts it. Give a good push on each end of the memory sticks at the same time.

You guys were right about the pci-x socket. I have removed and plugged the GPU back in. The monitor has worked! But now it beeps only once short and windows goes to crash and reboot loop. I have fixed this problem with reinstalling windows long ago but there was no beep then.

One short beep means everything check out ok on most bios power up components and test process.
So that is good.
Have you changed any hardware since you cleaned the system ect.
Or placed any new parts in the system.
If you are getting errors and windows will not load.
power up your system and keep tapping the F8 key on your keyboard.
When the windows boot menu and options appears select safe mode.
See if windows loads in that mode.
If it does, simply go to your backup and restore options of windows and select a restore point with a time and date stamp before the system failed to load.
Select it and let backup and restore mode run.
Then after a restart see if windows loads right in normal mode without crashing or freezing at the windows loading logo ok.
With luck it should load windows 8 without any problems after restore mode.

Hey, before i saw your answer i was playing around with the cables and checking if there is a problem. I have remembered that i have left open the processor's "hatch" i think. I have fixed that up. And when i rebooted the computer there was no beep. Looks like i have been too clumsy. But this time the monitor did not get any signal like before. I will take out the GPU and replace it a few more times and see if it works.
When i tap f8 while the PC boots i cant see any option saying start with safe mode,
Rather i have 3 options
1-) The name of my CD drive
2-) the name of my HDD
3-) Enter setup
My PC is windows 8 and it has this Asus UEFI Bios thing. Is there any way i can boot with safe mode from BIOS settings?
