Posted April 26 So here's a little backstory: I had posted last night for some help. My graphic drivers were crashing then i updated them and then it crashed one final time like this. multiple people said the graphics card had tied. i was lucky enough to sell some things today and bought a new card. the vga light is still on and i've still not getting anything in my computer.. Everything is plugged in right. my computer is on everything is on everything's running my monitor isn't just getting any feedback from y pc. i tried a second monitor and many cables and still nothing.. What could it be at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The debug LEDs / Q-LEDs are supposed to cycle through CPU-RAM-GPU-BOOT. It's checking if each major component is working, and will STAY on the item that's causing POST / Boot problems. The checkboard display on the bottom of the screen... that is NOT a good sign. That is some sort of GPU artifact - signs of a failing GPU.

You'll have to get a friend or a shop to help check each component (e.g. CPU, RAM, GPU, etc).
