no vidio--HEELLPPPP me

over a year ago i built a com,puter for a friend to surf the internet- i used a msi 6340 with a 750 duron 256ram onboard vidio and sound--couple of months ago the vidio went south so i ploped in a agp card and it worked well till yesterday???

I tried swappin out the vidio card--no luck
tried a different mb--no luck
plugged in a different ps--no luck
tried different memory--no luck

??????????

tried booting with nothing on but 1 stick of ram/ mb/ vidio card/cpu--no boot. went back checked connections reseated everything--no boot--no beeps--just the fans coming on--what am i missing?

thanks for any suggestions

Was he having any problems before it died?

You haven't swapped the CPU to test, have you?

sounds to me like the video card is dead if you tried new memeory+mb+psu and still nothing. either the vid card or the monitor is bad. i would try using a different monitor first. goodluck

i did swap vidio cards also-just dont have a spare cpu-and dont want to mess with pullin parts from my box.

he had no problems except a couple months befor when the onboard vidio died-it was replaced and worked well till now. I did swap that vidio card for a different agp card.. the monitor does work-its a different one also--mine.

thinkin it might be the CPU-but when i swapped mbs i did a visual on cpu and would rate it as normal in appearance.

thanks

Is the system posting with a beep? or does it just not respond at all?

try laying it out on a wood table or book(mobo) and try with just ram,processor, video card no drives and see it you can get a bios screen and while your at try reseting the cmos jumper.
