P5Q-e don't see any video

[Nitro111]

Hello, guys.

What I have is:
Monitor is perfectly fine, RAM (1 module) is fine, CPU is ok, PSU is also works fine. Everything listed above I've tried and it works on a different computer. Nothing else is connected at this point.

I've got a p5q-e motherboard which bleeps 1long-2short signals. I believe it means that it does not have a video card. But it does, I've tried all the three PCI-e slots, with 3 different video, also I've tried not a PCI-e card but an old PCI one. Still the same 3 bleeps. Monitor says no signal, nothing more.

I'm guessing south bridge went bananas (since its responsible for managing PCI-e)

The question is what do I do now? Is there a chance to fix it? Or am I missing something?

Try your vga in other pc or try another vga to your pc

reseat everything
reset cmos

try a different pcie video card

PCIe 16x slots are NOT controlled by the south bridge and even then its most likely not a chipset fault etc

perhaps time for a new mobo if all else fails and you have definitely checked everything else

I've tried 2 working PCI-e and 1 PCI card. All those times I've got 3 bleeps.
Reset CMOS didn't help, same result.

Looks like this is the time for new mobo, you're probably right, apache_lives. But it's these days its very hard to find a 775 LGA mobo Have no idea where to get one.

Your mobo use Award bios see code beep :
1 Long Beep, 2 Short Beeps
One long beep followed by two short beeps indicates that there has been some kind of error with thevideo
card. Replacing the video card is usually the most you'll have to do to fix this one.
