ok so my roommate restarted my other computer. And now when it boots up you see the windows loading thing, then when the login screen should come up the monitor shuts off, like it doesn't revive any input anymore. But if you input the login correctly you can hear the windows startup theme in the speakers, but the screen never comes back on.
Ok so i tried re-seating the video card but that didn't help.
Tried a different monitor. No go.
Also tried running it out thru the DVI port with an adapter but that didn't help either.
On the plus side I can get into safe mode.
As for specs -
Windows XP Pro SP 3
Gigabyte GA-P35-S3G mobo
CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2
EVGA 256-P2-N429-LR GeForce 7200GS 256MB
Ante 500w PSU
DVD burner.
monitor is a old CRT i found somewhere along the line.
so ahh any idea's. I can't really think of anything for some reason.....
