Title: MONITOR NO SIGNAL HELP PLEEEASE
Post by: SteveoM on May 11, 2018, 05:16:44 AM

Just bought a new graphics card and its saying no signal on my monitor.

EVERYTHING I KNOW SO FAR - the graphics card fans arnt spinning although when i first start up my pc they spin but then stop,  its not the cable,  I took out the circle battery on motherboard and put back in, taking out ram cleaned put back, ive tried plugging the cable (dvi to dvi) into the motherboard while the graphics card is not installed still says no signal/

If anyone has any ideas please let me know!! PL0x

Tell us your make and model of the graphics card.
But it may be as simple as you haven’t supplied the extra power it needs.
