Those two things seem to be unconnected as far as I can tell, as no matter what happens you should always still see something on the screen when you first turn on. Have you tried taking the ram/graphics card back out then re-inserting them? You may have knocked something and it's causing a problem.

Also, does the hard drive sound as if it is trying to load windows?

hi admin

I did try reseating both the graphics card and the memory
but i didnt get to post.

the hardrive both sound as if they are on
but i dont think they sound as if they are loading into windows

i always used to get one beep whihc obviously means system post is fine
but im not getting that now
its almost as if they computer is trying to beep but the speaker wont beep
what i mean is that it sounds like a SILENCED beep

when i take out the graphics card i do get beeps
likewise with the memory

I have looked at the cpu, i took off the fan
also i took out the atx power cable and reinserted
still no joy really.

ahh the battery is an idea

as it happens i got a battery its from an old motherboard tho
i know it worked
it was an old pentium 1 133mhz i kept the battery but threw the motherboard away last week!

should i try putting that in?

im thinking it could also be the cpu which is a disaster
because getting a xp old skool series replacement is a bloody nightmare

ermm actually i dont think it would be the battery

reason why is because when i take out the graphics card or the memory i do get some beeps...
which also makes me think its more the cpu rather than the mobo................
