Hi, I'm trying to fix a PC for a friend, but getting nowhere, slowly and painfully.
It sounds as if it starts (all fans, including on GPU, & HDD spin up), but nothing ever appears on the monitor.
I have tested (and passed) the monitor, the lead, the GPU (tried another card in), the PSU (tried another PSU in), reseated EVERYTHING, reset CMOS, tried without non-essential hardware.
I also put a POST test card in, it gave a code corresponding to "waiting for video device", but the graphics card is definitely ok (as I say, I tried another, new one in).
Any ideas please?
Thanks for your help
