HD EAH4670 Not Working

[pcnut97]

Hi All


I have an ATI Radeon HD EAH4670 pci-e graphics card. When I turn on my computer, I see the bios screen and when the XP logo should come up,my monitor displays 'NO SIGNAL'. So, What is broken?????????? I have a 500w Apevia PSU and a MSNV 939 motherboard with 1.5gb of DDR memory. No HDD and no CD drive. I just build it out of spare parts, so I cannot RMA the card.



Thanks

Make sure the BIOS is set to look to PCI-E slot for output. Sometimes they default on onboard graphics.

try flashing the bios by removing the bios cell from the mother board and reinserting the cell back into its place....

I have that psu my self and I loathe it. As for the card you may have possible compatibility issue but should be working so if you got an older card on hand clean out all the old drivers then try the 4670 again.

I have tried clearing the bios by removing the battery and switching jumpers. - Nothing

I have used another REALLY old PCI-E card with no troubl except the card sucks.

I do not believe drivers are the issue because I have no hard drive and no OS installed in the system. I just built it.

Any other ideas


Thanks for all the responses,

K without installing an OS how would get the xp logo??you are saying that you do not have an hard disk and you do not have an OS also then how are you gonna test the graphic card??

maybe instead of flushing the BIOS you should flush your knowledge


STRICTLY NO OFFENCE

I have a linux cd in in place of a hdd until i find out why the card is not working.

 

[nforce4max]

Are you using Mint? Try another distro or a bootleg copy of windows.

 

[ahmadumair]

you should have told it before. Try to get any installation cd and see if it boots up

 

[pcnut97]

Sorry, I forgot to mention it. I took the card out, put another in and loaded XP on a real hdd now. I put the weird card back in and I got the same No Signal issue after it posted (successfully posted). Any Ideas?

Yup Nforce is right. RMA ASAP

 

[pcnut97]

What is it is too old to RMA it? Pitch it.

No not to old to RMA its not like its 2 years old.

 

[pcnut97]

Thank, as you can tell, I am clueless about graphic cards. How would I RMA it. Call Asus? (It is made by Asus not ATI, just "Graphics By ATI")

[ahmadumair]

where did you purchase it from??

 

[pcnut97]

where did you purchase it from??

Honestly, I forget. Can I RMA it through Asus??

Thanks

 

[nforce4max]

Yes ffs give it a try.

 

[ahmadumair]

if you forgot then certainly you should move Asus on the issue

 

[pcnut97]
