Blank screen

[samwap]

Hi

The other day I left my computer running. All was fine. Came back a
few hours later to find a blank
screen. It has blank ever since. I can not get a hint of graphics
from
the computer.


The monitor is fine. I unplugged it from the computer and it
immediately asked me to check signal cable. I tried my laptop in the
monitor and it was fine.


I have just swapped graphics cards but still nothing.


Not really sure what else to try. Please help. Thanks.


I am (was) running an AMD 1800 XP processor with XP Pro, 1gb RAM and
a
Asus A7V8X-X motherboard.


Many thanks in advance.
Sam

How about the Startup sequence; do you see any messages about entering
setup, etc.?

Maybe the power supply, or motherboard..

Try a hardware group, but I suspect you'll need to swap out parts till
it works again.
