Ok... I'm a little stumped on this one...
This is what I'm currently working with:
Intel Celeron D 331 Prescott 2.66GHz LGA 775 Processor Model
ASUS P5PE-VM LGA 775 Intel 865G Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
Kingston ValueRAM 512MB 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Desktop Memory Model KVR400X64C3A/512
SAPPHIRE 100562L-GN Radeon 9600PRO 256MB DDR AGP 4X/8X Video Card
and a 420watt micro atx case.
When I first put it all together, the video didn't work, so assuming the card was bad I removed it and plugged directly into the onboard video. All was well until the next day while updating windows the screen basically turned to gibberish pixel wise. I proceeded to restart the computer and now I'm receiving the same error message I received when I was trying to plug through the Sapphire card. My monitor comes up saying "no signal". When I power the computer on I can hear the CRT monitor warm up and then come up with no signal so it can tell when I'm powering it on and off. Assuming it was the PSU I removed it and took it down to be tested. "Came up green across the board" in their words. I've heard that bad memory can cause this to happen so I removed the ram stick from it (I BELIEVE this works... if not please correct me) and still received the same error. Help please cause I've become clueless. Thanks
