Hi,

I recently built my own pc (parts listed below) all worked fine except
for
on occation when the pc booted I would get no signal to the monitor. Also
the pc would occationally lock up with a scambled picture on the monitor.

I assumed the problem was a faulty graphics card so I bought a second
hand
one just to check this out(it was said to be a working ati radeon x300
pcie)
I tried the graphics card. the pc booted up but I got no picture.

Now when I try to boot up the pc (with either graphics card) it keeps
restarting. what I mean is it attempts to boot and after 2 seconds it
cuts
out and starts again and keeps doing this until I turn it off.

I have stripped it back so that only the basics are connected to the
motherboard but I still get the same problem. I can only assume the
motherboard is faulty.

Any ideas or advice would be much appreciated

Hi Mike,
Try removing all previous video drivers, reinstall Asus 7600GS
v.card with a Nvidia driver downloaded from the Nvidia site.
Ignore Asus video driver CD.

I'm using an Asus 7300GT with v.driver v93.71, on XP PRO.
