Hello, I have you encountered a crash of some kind since I'm not a computer expert someone might help me with this issue. So, first of all I bought my computer from a LAN-Company that was selling out some computers and I bought 1 worked very well and so,

Specs(before):
Cpu: Some i5 processor
Gpu : AMD Radeon 7850
Mobo:don't know
Ram: som regular rams

Worked fine
Then like a year later I decided to upgrade it a little
Changing the mother board to a
Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 Micro-ATX
I put in another hard drive of 1 TV
A new Processor AMD Fx 8350, the Mobo was compatible (AM3+ Socket)
It was some problems in the beginning but I think I solved it by changing some SATA Setting from IDE to ACHI. And it worked!! :)
From that time I haven't had any problems until today.
I installed Black Ops 2 yesterday, started it today played some games, then after the recent game, I tried to search for a new Zombie game mode server.
And then the Screen went gray and I think I saw some purple stuff as well and the computer died.
Tried to restart it but no Monitor was showing.
Removed the Gpu from computer , managed to boot it up. Got through bios to windows.
I though that the graphics driver should be unistalled to continue, downloaded some graphics driver remover (Don't remember but was from Guru3d something)
Did that restarted, put in the graphics card again, computer started but no monitor. Unplugged and could get into bios if I booted from motherboard, ok now then? What do I do?
 
Solution


It appears that way.
The only other thing to do would be to put it into another computer and see if it works and displays like even the BIOS screen.

Try going into the startup screen of Bios and see if you can switch monitors to the Graphics. Also download a driver for the AMD video card and I think it is the older drivers not the new brand.

The only thing I found in Advanced Bios Settings was Init Display First, options were PCI Slot, OnChipVGA, PEG
I guess pci is right, but I'm using PCIEX16
I went to AMD Website and typed in the exact graphics card, and there was a Radeon Software, ill download it and see what happens, slow internet right now, ill report back tomorrow, thanks Man U rock :)

Yes PCIe x16 is correct.
And it sounds like you got the right download.
I'm -7:00 Mountain Time in the US. Some of these questions come in from the UK.

It still doesn't work, I installed everything I guess and still no monitor, it's much better now at least, everything is working except monitor, keyboard mouse wasn't working before, all the fans are on. The weird thing is that it worked before, and the gray screen crash maybe killed the gpu?

Try going into the BIOS screen and find the where it says to set to default then save and keep changes then when it cycles go back into Bios and make the change to again to PCIe for the display. Then save with changes and see if the GPU displays normally.
If it doesn't then are you using HDMI output from the graphics card or something else and if something else can you try a different output. Tell me if you are using something else besides HDMI on any outputs and what is the output from the computer graphics card that is built in.

If I turned everything I'm BIOS to default, it just got stuck in a reboot loop, saw that it switched back to IDE Native in the DATA Setting, so I plugged out the new hard drive, and I got it to boot into windows. But then I tried with the graphics card, still no monitor. And yes I'm using hdmi on both on board and gpu, there is an option for VGA on onboard, put it works only when graphics card not in.

Two things to try. One for me out of curiosity.
One when you power on the computer does the fans on the GPU spin? If not it is the video card. And will have to RMA'd if under warranty.
Two the monitor is their a light lit on the monitor and can you press the menu button on the monitor and get a display I'm curious, I know it works on a HDMI TVs when you press the menu button.

I've come forward a little, I chose the OnChip as first monitor and un-seated the new hdd. Got it to run with the graphics card but still using on board graphics, I installed every graphics driver again and such. All the fans are on, gpu cpu everything. It wanted me to restart and I'll see what happen's, I'll try the smart capability thing. But I gotta go now. Can try later

The smart thing is for the hard drive monitoring that indicates premature failure signs.
I'm sorry I don't have any more ideas to help you out.
