I have a older ecs k75sa mobo. I has a agp slot with 5 pci. I have a athlon xp 2200 1.8gig processor. I have installed 1gig pc3200 memory. I have 3 hard drives installed, 1 western digital, 2 maxtors. I have a simple but functional sound card 16 bit. My problem lies with my video. I have no onboard video, I use the agp slot in which for 2 months now I been using inno3d 7600gs agp 512mb video card. Out of nowhere (in bios screen, looking at files on hard drive, listening to music off media player offline stuff), surfing the net... my screen goes blank and says "NO SIGNAL". I've read most suggestions regarding this problem... and it still doesn't add up. Because as I type this... I'm using my oldie but goodie 5200 nvidia. The 5200 works like a champ, in anything I want to do... and has never in its 5 years of life ever sent me a "no signal". Not the biggest expert, but considering I have a brand new 500w thermaltake power supply, good tested memory,. that tells me its not my agp slot, not my processor, not my memory, the monitor is also brand new... so what is it? To me, it could be only one thing, the newer 7600 card. The strange thing, I can be in windows for hours and this occurs. Don't understand how it could work just fine for a month in a half, and now just takes a big dump. I love nvidia cards, but not sure about the manufacturer. Copystars.com I think is trying to swindle me out of a return... they sent me a rma form for a possible return, but haven't emailed me back in about a week... errrr! :eek:
