No display on monitor

four led lights where are they? lost the manual? Desktop mobo.
MS-7693 (v2.x) Manboard
970a or 970S?
all led x4 status indicators. on mobo top
4 glow means phase 4 power level. page 32.

coin cell dead is #1 for all PCs over 5 year and for sure 7.
a dead mobo, bios screens dead, that it,????
what gpu card what monitor ?
all fans dead?
support for vista or w7 , so that?
bios HOT KEY IS <del> THEN F11 (BIOS II)?
2 MOBO 1 GOOD 1 BAD USING SAME CPU AND 1 STICK OF RAM.? same PSU>? wired same to mobo?
THIS MOBA HAS NO VGA IGPU PORT ON REAR SO MUST HAVE GPU CARD or there can be video ever.
and see bios.
and reset bios first and new coin cell first.
7years old that coin is and will be a pain now or soon. a $ 1 fix.
gpu card into top x16 slot?????
GPU card over 75watts must have gpu aux power wired to it or it will be dead, from PCl.
psu wired to JPWR2 ? must be. and JPWR1 both. or cpu will be dead.
that is about it , on this 2011 mobo.

no gpu card top in fact full speck on all things connected to the mobo no told, including all devices all cables, and cards. and port.
not told.

It might just be worth double checking that its not in fact your monitor at fault.
you said the the monitor isn't always displaying the picture, but you can hear that the computer is on?
You also say you are turning your computer off and on to cure the problem, which of course also power cycles your monitor.

When it happens again, power cycle your monitor by turning it off and on to see if the image reappears?

No the mobo is compatible with the Power Supply, and GPU.
And vice-versa.

Mainboard fan???????
You mean the Processor (CPU) fan?

I'm guessing I guess, because computer case fans aren't on the motherboard/mainboard/mobo.
(MOtherBOard)

You're getting power to the mobo, but the question is how much?

1) IF ALL of the LED lights were on at once, they would use less than 1 Watt of power.

2) EACH fan uses 2 to 3 Watts of power.

3) A typical Processor can use from 51 to 125 Watts of power.
Just depends on what Processor it is.

http://206.108.48.60/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=363&tab=1

The mobo will support Intel Core2 Quad-Core processors. Depending on which one, you may be talking about Up To 105 Watts of power,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Core_2_microprocessors#Quad-Core_Desktop_processors

This is why LED's can light, and fans may spin, but the Processor isn't getting enough power, so the computer will not turn on. (Processor isn't turning on)

Why?

1) Just because that Power Supply is new, doesn't mean it is good.
Sometimes you get a bad one. Test the three main voltages coming out, with a multimeter set to DC Voltage.

Need guidance post back in a Comment.
(An economical multimeter can be purchased, for as little as $8 to $12. I have seen cheaper. Available in a multitude of stores. An auto parts store is but one example )

2) You don't have the 4-pin ATX +12 Volt power cable plugged in.
Goes to the white square 4-socket hole connector, to the left top corner of the Processor socket.
(Motherboard installed in computer case)

3) REQUIRES -> TWO 6-pin PCI-Express power cables, for the Nvidia GTX560Ti graphics card.

The Antec HCG750 PSU has 4 of them, so no problem there, IF you have two of them plugged into the graphics card.

Both connectors of the 20 + 4-pin ATX main power cable's connector, need to be used. Biostar mobo requires a 24-pin ATX main power cable.

Post back in a Comment as to power cables plugged in, and DC Voltage test on PSU.

Hi Dave,

1. Have you ever tried testing your VTX HD5450 GPU to another system or try bringing it to the store where you purchased it.
2. After removing the VTX HD5450 GPU, did your Nvidia 8400GS worked? - If it works there might be a compatibility issue between your MOBO and HD5450 GPU if the card is good.
3. I think there is nothing to configure on your bios regarding Graphics setting because your Nvidia 8400GS worked without any problems.
4. Did you check the VGA/ DVI cable and power cable if it is plugged to the proper ports. There are times that even tough we are that good we miss something.

Hopefully this information helps.

Thank you for using FixYa.

DC5000MT (i think you left off the"T" right?) MT=mini-tower then.
they at SFF then too.
old old desktop pentium 4, with pata hard drive?
no monitor stated, make nor model #
no vga card stated.

migrating? oops.. why do that? nor if PC ran before?
NO OS stated,? windows XP what? (it came with XP)
ok the mobo turns on with case power button?
and the CPU fan spins fast, as does PSU fan?

what does USB ports mean>? using what there?
PS/2 keyboard. using that? or pS2/mouse?
does it beep:?
are you sure the monitor is ok?
if monitor is ok ?
and PSU and 1 stick of ram is ok
the BIOS screens work.
or the PSU
does this mobo have onboard VGA jack GPU:>
if yes, try both it and PCI video card.
and 1 stick of ram at a time. slot1, bank 0

easy, plug in any external display (vga first)
work now.?
also my elite book has a removable video card
also run free temp monitor software, as CPU core heat and GPU
if GPU overheats, fix that first.

mine has the 15p vga rear
and a video port left that i connect to my HDMI adaptor to TV
so i can watch screen on huge 60" tv if want.


why not use the external displays?
the hot key on top row turns this on..
the HP.com manual is free to read 24/7

page 16 in your manual shows
"VGA (Dsub 15-pin) supporting 1600 ×
1200 external resolution at 75-GHz (hot
plug/unplug with auto-detect)"

mines set to auto detect. per same book.


my 8540w has "DISPLAY" port left side and works with HDMI
so mines more ELITE, nana nana.....LOL

your gpu might of overheated and burned out, you might want to flip the computer over,, and right next to the RAM there is like some type of card, which is your GPU, you might want to look into pulling it and replacing that.....

another way of doing this that might work is connect the laptop to another COMPUTER Monitor, and see if anything is displayed if nothing is displayed it might be b/c your GPU did burn out....

i hope this helps please let me know what happens...

Hi!

Nahh...you can use that gpu with that mobo, but i wouldent recomend it. The GPU - Requires NVIDIA HybridPower™- enabled motherboard, and that mobo dosent have that. It might work but you cant use the full power of that gpu on that mobo. And beside that, that gpu is bigger then the mobo itself
I sugest you to buy another mobo, the gpu you looking at is a good one but your mobo isent that good.

Here is the spec for the GPU:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_9500gt_us.html

And here are the spec for that mobo:

Good luck

Nic

First check to make sure your drivers are up to date and the card is seated properly. Then If your graphics card is still under warranty take it back and get a new one. For some reason it is cutting out the signal to the monitor.

no, its working as you said. try to uninstall your video if you installed to expansion slot (agp) then use the on board. that is one of the most common problems of pc specially when you're moving this from one place to another. if it boots from your onboard vga clean your uninstalled video card then reinstall to your agp. i hope that this helps you
