Well... I just got back home from college, I go to school up in south dakota and live in mississippi, well my precious computer rode in my trunk the whole way down, being bounced and jarred around.
I get home and I try hooking up my computer, I dont get any output on the screen... none at all, i've had wierd problems with my graphic card before, but i would just have to do wierd things, like plug it into the dvi port or have a 2nd monitor plugged in for it to work correctly, because it would throw out some wierd resolution that my lcd can't display, this time it's not getting a signal at all though... so i replace the card with a crappy nvidia pci one i had in another computer that i know works fine, still nothing, i've tried other monitors as well.
I get no output whatsoever on the screen, if i listen close i get a beep noise every few seconds it sounds, not sure if this is normal or not, can't really remember, lol, i don't think it is.
Does anyone have ANY idea what could have happened ? I checked to make sure everything was still plugged in/seated properly, I am currently in the process of tearing evertyhing out of it and hooking it all back up to make sure everything is plugged in correctly (it's currently sprawled about my floor).
I was told also that I needed to switch the bios settings from an AGP card to PCI when I was trying to test it with the other card, how would I even do this without any type of output on the screen ?! lol...
ANY help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Stewart
