SOURCE: Screen goes blank

I too have an LCD Xerox - it worked fine for a while, then kept going blank. Unplugging and reconnecting from both pc and power seems to reset it. It hadn't happened for months but started again the other night when it occurred to me that I have downloaded MS security updates - I've removed the ones that I downloaded just before it started happening again and the problem seems to be solved. Hope this helps someone.

SOURCE: cannot get new ati radeon 4350 graphics card to work on my asus motherboard

A couple of suggestions, in case you over looked them.

1) Get into BIOS and make sure the on board is disabled there. I've have trouble before when I missed it.
2) If the old one is showing on your Device Manager, Disable it but dont uninstall it. Then remove any drivers for it.

SOURCE: My On borad video card went bad on my Compaq

It's likely more than just the onboard video that went bad. This is often cause by the chipset going bad; which causes the video to go out along with other things at times. The heading to your issue says that your desktop is a refurbished one. I would almost be willing to bet that the initial problem it had (causing it to have to be refurbished) was that the chipset went bad. Sometimes this can be fixed by "reflowing" your motherboard - your chipset in particular. Unless your video chip is discolored (brownish-burned look), then it may be possible to fix it. What may be the problem is that your video chip, or chipset, got pretty hot and that the heat caused the solder to soften or even start to liquefy, and then the chip slipped out of it's socket just enough to cause your problems. There aren't alot of places that "reflow" or "reball", and even having it done doesn't guarantee it will work again. Reflowing your board requires you to remove the motherboard from the case and heat it up just enough to get the chip to slide all the way back into it's socket. Reballing requires the chip to be completely removed, and thn putting little balls of solder on the pins of the chip, then you heat the motherboard up with a heat gun or high-powered hair dryer to get the chip to slide back into the socket when the solder starts to liquefy. Both ways are a delicate and drawn out process. It will likely be easier to just replace the motherboard in your computer. You don't necessarily have to replace it with an HP\Compaq motherboard. You could just replace it with an aftermarket board. Just be sure to find one that is right for your case.

Hi granttoolmad
Shut down computer and disconnect power plug . Extract new graphics . Reconnect and reboot computer , you should get video back . Install the driver with the cdrom you purchased with the card . Shut down . Install new card . and boot your machine . Wait for Windows to recognize the card . Shut down . Connect your monitor to new card . Reboot .
Best regards ,

Beep Codes?

Hi,

This board has been known to have some issues, the Asus' PEG optimizations aren't fully supported by some video cards like the Gigabyte GeForce 6600 GT. One example of a fully supporting video card is the Asus Extreme Radeon EAX1900XTX.

If possible, try using a different video card (one that supports
Asus' PEG optimizations - PEG Link Mode overclocking feature; PEG Link for single/dual graphics cards ). Or you may want to try and disable the PEG entirely.

Hope this be of some help/idea. Pls post back how things turn up or should you need further information.

Good luck and kind regards.

ASUS eee701 - Display is flickering in black/white version

If the entire display is flickering, tha'ts typically a hardware issue. Try tilting the screen back and forth, or pressing gently on the area just above the keyboard to see if you can replicate the issue. If it flickers then, you've got a bad cable or a plug.

It's unlikely, but if it is a software issue you can try dowloading new drivers for the video card. Go to the ASUS website, enter in your model information, and see if you can find drivers for the video component.

Hope that helps.

No video output. what video cards are compatible?

Hello,

Your MB takes a PCI Express x16 (max. 2GB/s, x4 mode) video card.

Please note the warning in your manual on Page 1-22 about using "Qualified" graphics cards. Here is a link to your manual:

http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socket775/P5GL-MX/e2222_p5gl-mx.pdf

If you are not getting video, have you tried to reinstall the VGA driver? Just a thought. You can get it by typing your model number into the search box on the Asus support site.(Just use P5GL-MX.)
