Title: Intresting display problem.
Post by: deltacipher on March 27, 2009, 08:31:17 PM

So anyhow, I went on the task of creating a new computer recently and after playing a game of cat and mouse with the part provider I managed to get all the components together I needed. I hooked everything up and started the computer, all the fans run , cpu is clearly getting power , etc and yet my 9600 geforce card isnt displaying any output, instead just a black screen. Does anyone know any typical problems that might do this and if so possibily howto fix them also ? This problem has me stumped.

By the way power is running to all my compenents, I fortunaty didnt misplug anything :D.

Perhaps the card itself is faulty? Did you try another graphic card? and check if the display is hooked up correctly and nothing is loose.

Well, I always have used this display and it works fine, but to be sure I checked all the connections like you mentioned and nothing was missing. So then I tried replacing my graphics card with a graphics card that I know works, still nothing coming back from the computer, monitor still says theres no input. Also my motherboard has no onboard graphics so thats a flunk too. Anyone got any ideas ?
