PC100 BXcel M726MRT

I think i uninstalled the video card but I'm not sure..when I start-up the screen is blank and nothing. as far as i know it should auto detect and install it but i'm not sure. Could the bios be shot and thats why it won't work? need lots of help on this one please.

There are about a gazillion reasons why a PC won't display anything. Graphics card drivers is not one of them.

yeah i know but it was working ok until i messed with the card. so it was my thought that i might have uninstalled the drivers and since there is no onboard vga out on this board? i thought that might be it.

Video card may not be properly seated. Pull and reseat the card and anything else you might have disturbed...

well its still a mystery to me I have no error beeps nothing I took the memory chips out disconected all the drives set the motherboard to defaults and it still won't work so I'm thinking either the bios or the video card is dead....any other thoughts??


thank you all for all the help

When you turn the system on, are all the fans spinning up and all the drives spinning?? If not, then theremight be a power problem.

yeah everything powers just no display...I have no clue thats why i thought it was the video drivers but I really don't know my experience is limited and its a used system so I'm not sure what was wrong if anything before got it

Which processor are you using?...

[batmeat]

when you turn on your computer if you don't even see it post or count ram then you have either a Mobo or CPU problem. If you watch it post and can hear the windows startup sound then you have graphic card problem. Hold down F8 after your computer posts and boot into safe mode. Then you can work from there.

Is that a newly built system or did it just stop working, without you changing ANYTHING?
