Biography
Having 4 PCs in my 15 m2 room,enough said.
Got my first PC back in 1995 when we used MSDOS,floppy drives,compressed HDD and powerful Pentium 1 CPU at 100MHz (turbo).
Then around 2002 came Phenom and Athlon after that switched to AMD FX ..all those 3 PCs still work,gave dad 2 of them and from 2016 started building my own rigs (2 of them).
Know much about hardware,mainboards and GPUs are my speciality.
Hardcore gamer at heart.played over 500 titles.
In spare time like to read about newest hardware,sadly in Serbia most is unvailable which makes me so sad...love everything that has to do with IT equipment (Cellphones,tablets,laptops..etc). -

So anyone explain me how PC works normallynout of the chasis and inside I do get no video output error? What would my next steps be?
-
So better do not remove it then? I thought 68 C in idle is too high.
-
I did wiggle it but nothing happens. I am affraid of doing it harder cuz of breaking solder balls under GPU?
-
Okay. So temp is in idle 68 C which seem a lot to me. I pushed these 2 plastic pieces and they are not holding anymore cooler to tje pcb. But I am still unable to remove the passive cooler from GPU. I used hairdryer not much help. I want to replace the thermal paste in case that idle temp is too high.
-
So i removed all the pci-cards, removed optical drives, removed MoBo from case. Installed only AGP graphics card that was previously installed but swapped the PSU since I did not want to bother removing second PSU from case. And PC booted fine. Now this is interesting. What would be my second step? To try to boot with older PSU?
-
Nope... How about me removing everything from PC case and then trying to boot up the PC?
-
Still getting no video input. The chasis is in pretty bad conditon could it be the cause that bracket of the graphics card is somehow touching the motherboard? Even when I remove the graphics card from AGP slot still is hard to remove it from chasis, like its making contact somewhere between MoBo and chasis.
-
Yep.Same issue not showing pic on monitor.
-
Okay, so on first PC I blow away the dust on agp slot and reseated the card and now working fine... What should I try on second PC?
-
I am getting one long and 2 short beeps. I can see red light working which means PV boots fine, just I don't get picture. Maybe monitor died? Hmmm, I am thihking that somehow I shorted out something (monitor) with older PC and now newer PC does not show picture...it nevet happened with newer PC (lets say PC 1) is newer , PC 2 (older).
-
Yes I can.But on first PC I did not remove the card.PC was booting fine. I did check pins of the GPU on second card and they are okay. Not sure how to check pins on AGP slot, need multimeter?
-
Nope sorry.Don't have spare AGP cards. But that PC was working fine. Never before issues until now. Who knows, maybe I shorted out the GPU with bad cable...

Hi guys. I have 2 old PCs one of them was working normally and second one not showing picture on monitor at all though probably booting fine. Rarely like one out of 20 tries this PC behaves normally. Suddenly even second PCs started having same issue.No picture on monitor. I bought 2 new VGA cables, still same issue. Now none of them is showing picture on monitor. VGA is only video output.Second older PC has DVI but I don't get pic over DVI too. How come suddenly PC which was working fine now showing same symptoms as not working one? 2 new cables, no help. On newer PC I do hear at boot one long and 3 short beeps. It's a AMD Sempron Athlon XP PC and second one is PIII @500 MHz.
