Hello all,
Hopefully I can get an answer or least a glimmer of hope. I made sure everything was plugged in and in place. Booted up, everything runs, fans turning, lights on, everything purring. But nothing on my monitor. I tried from the motherboard and graphics card DVI, picking up nothing. I know this monitor works as it works with my previous computer 100%. I even tried a different monitor (a TV) with HDMI port, still nothing but a black screen or as if it was never plugged in to begin with.
I tried multiple troubleshoots:
CMOS reset, both with taking the battery out and the switch. And did jumpers to reset it.
No video card in the motherboard.
Took out the RAM in case if it was faulty.
Made sure nothing was plugged in except for power cable and monitor in case the USB interfered.
I asked for a replacement motherboard in case if it was something faulty in the motherboard.
All of the above didn't solve my problem.
The last option I can think of is chip replacement, but I still don't see how that's causing it.
Any ideas?
