No Signal on Monitor

[Malc H]

I was scanning my PC and after a short while the sceen went off so I moved the mouse to bring it back on and I got no signal on the monitor. I connected the monitor to another PC and it works I also put a grapics card in but still get the same message. The motherboard is a asrock P4S61 and the CPU is a Intel P4 3Ghz with 2GB RAM.

does the motherboard post when you power on, can you hear the single beep that you normally get

Hi Glendalf81
No it does not beep only alot of beeps coming from me. I also removed the memory and still no beep or signal.

it could be a motherboard failure try clearing the cmos, if that does not work then its possible you need a new motherboard, also i know you said you removed the ram but have you also tried booting with the absolute minimum devices, i.e. cpu, psu, and memory only

+1 If I can't get an image on screen I turn to the memory first.

1 more thing, is your ram 1x2gb or 2x1gb?
you could try different ram sticks 1 at a time if it is the latter

Try your memory in another computer if you can. If the memory works, then try the video card and so on.
If all the parts work, it is the Motherboard.

This works well also, once you get it to BOOT.
