So my system is

biostar tforce p965
1 raptor 74
enermax liberty 500w
e6300 (@ 3ghz)
ati 1950pro

Got the system in december of 2006. Overclocked it to 3ghz no problem. Temp never got over 55c under load.

This morning i reboot. I get no Video. The LED display on the motherboard is saying it is a vga issue. So i clear the bios and still teh same result.

So i go out and buy a Geforce 8600gts. And the system runs fine. I can play games for hours.

Unfortunatly im not satisfied with teh performance of the 8600gts, so i return it and get a 8800gts.

Now im getting the same results i was getting with my ati 1950 pro. No video and the mobo lights indicating a vga issue.

So here ar ethe only things i can think can be wrong

1. My 1950 is bad and i got unlucky and got a bad 8800gts.
2. My powersupply is going bad.
3. My motherbaord is going bad.

Any other ideas?
