Hey everyone, I'm at a loss here. I built this computer to sell and I sold it to a guy. Well, he comes back and said it's not working, that the computer comes on but no video. I told him to bring it back and I would fix it for him. That's where the fun starts.
First I thought it was the cheap power supply I bought so I bought a new one with more wattage but still no video.
So, I tested the video card in another computer I have and it worked fine. I put another video card in the system and no video.
I decided to replace the motherboard since I had had problems with it in the past. So I bought a new ASRock mother board but in the process of changing out the motherboard and found that the CPU had some bent pins. So, we went in together and bought him a new CPU. I got it in and put it in the system....still no video.
I figured it has to be the ram. I ordered new ram from newegg and got in yesterday. I finally found time tonight to put the new ram in and fired of the computer. Still no freaking video.
The only thing that I have not replace on the build is the Hard drive and video card. I have tested the video card and it works. If the hard drive was bad I would think it would still show video but say there was no drive detected. I'm at a loss here and have no clue what could be going on. I'm almost to the point of thinking its the case or something lol. I could really use some help here since the guy already gave me the money and I've already spent it lol. HELP PLEASE! LOL
