Unhappy PC booting with no display

Hi All,

At my wits end here. On Sunday I booted my PC up and it suddenly gave me 1 long beep and 2 short beeps. All the fans on the heatsink, graphics card etc were running, keyboard and mouse also lit up and running, in essence it had booted up yet there was no display.

I have tried the video card in a different port and and am now at the stage where I only have the PSU, MOBO, Video Card and one stick of memory plugged in and it still does the same thing.

Any ideas? Mobo is Nforce 680i SLI, video card is a GTS 8800. Recently installed a Delta 1010LT audio card buyt had no problems in the couple of weeks since I did that.

I've tested everything and it all seems to work, tried to reset the CMOS, remove the battery, change leads, everything and still blank screen!!!

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello Colwyn

Are you aware of the BIOS maker on that board so we can define the beeps?

Hi, did your card die on you completely? The fan on mine is still booting up
