Hi well, some of you may remember a while back i was having A LOT! of troubles with my old pc. which lead to me throwing it out and buying a new one. Well a problem from the old one is now happening on the new one ( GOD NO!)
Bassicly When you turn on the computer, the light on my moniter stays orange (showing that it is pluged in but no siglan going through it ( as if the computer was off) ) . And Sometimes it dose boot up but gose horribly slow.
Recently i upgraded my GFX Card From a Nvidia MX440 ( OLD!) to a 5700FX Nvidia or somthing ( not to sure on GFX Cards) anyway, this happened on Both Cards, with the old card i just took it out, blew the AGP slot and put back in and somtimes it would work, This isnt working now. My MotherBoard Also has an intregrated GFX Card thingy, Ive tried that and to no sucess either.
So i have lead this down to 2 possabilitys ( both are probley wrong though)
My Hardrive, It is the only thing i still have from my old PC
Or My moniter, but it seems extreamly unlikly now because of the loading times when it dose boot up properly.
I get no beeps or anything from when i just turn on my computer, I am yet to run a postcard check to see if that helps.
so as you can see its a pickle of a situation i'm in. so i will also list all my other hardware and it may lead you computer masterminds to somthing else =P
Hard Drive, 80gb Maxtor ( about 3 years old)
16x Benq DVD Burner
52x CyberDrive CD Burner
Mother Board, Unknown, Some sort of IBM Pretty Recent
CPU. P4 2.8GHZ ( no over clocking done)
Ram, 512mb Generic ( 2x256 Chips) ( 1 chip may be from old computer)
