:hello: Hi there everyone, okay im going to put this very simple because im very tired (I'm from Sweden and its about 9pm here and I've had a long frustrating day!).

I bought these items to upgrade my PC since it was about 5 years old at the time.

Asus P5N-D 750i SLI
Geforce 9800GT
Corsair 450watt

--------------------------
rest of the old setup
Corsair 2gb 800mhz 4-4-4-12
prescott 3.4ghz (yea I know..money folks..money!)
500gig seagate

So, whats my problem then?
Well the graphic card wont give me a picture, and I've tried the card in two different PCs, and it worked without a problem in both of these PCs.
So its not the card failuring, its all leaning towards the motherboard, but the things is my old graphics card is working fine,
its a ATI X850XT so it doesnt need 2.0 pci-e.

I'm wondering if there are any programs to check my motherboard for errors or so?
I've found Memtest, but I havent got access to a cdburner right now, I might be able to soon though.

Like I mentioned im very tired so it wouldnt surprise me if there are parts that are unclear so please ask and ill try and explain it better.

Regards, Seb.

Good chance it is the motherboard since you tried a different powersupply with the P5ND. I have seen weirder behavior!
Good luck!

Have you updated to the lastest BIOS? Try that first if you haven't yet.

I've updated bios yes.. sorry for the extremely late answer but I've pretty much given up on solving this. Think I'll sell my graphics card and just wait till I can afford a new motherboard :/
