I just wanted to tell you I learned somthing today and it made me feel so dumb. I took out the video card and pluged it to the onboard, then booted it up and WOW it worked.Then all I had to do was go to dell and download, and BAM it cleared up the picture. Many thanks to you for your great knowlage and wizdom..Royboy
-   Hello I have a similar prob. I can't adjust the color or any of the setting on display. I don't have ethernet tht is working or sound system. Do you have an idea. The first dell gx 260 the motherboard was damaged ,but by the time I got it checked the 30 days ran out .-   Guest
You figured it out yourself and therefore are not dumb... Many people overlook the fact that a secondary video card has been installed. As an experienced tech, I have stumbled over the same issue many times but this problem is quickly rectified when the back panel is examined in detail, and TWO video outputs are discovered. So glad you were able to solve the problem. :-)

Hi. I'm using a Asus M2N-E motherboard and when I do a CMOS HDD's start to spin Fan of VGA Processor and main fan also start spinning but there is no picture on the screen and it seems the bios doesn't start up. About half a year ago I had the same problem but I couldn't solve it so I brought it to a technician but couldn't see what he did in order to be able to do it my self. I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong nor with my VGA card nor with my Monitor since they were running just fine today. I was trying out some things and the PC freezed so I decided to shut it down and start up since I don't have a reset button but there was no response from the button and shut the power from it directly. Thought first that my CPU got fried but still restarded the CMOS and again nothing happened. After a few minutes I checked the cable connecting the button to the mother board and it was disconnected. I reconnected it and it started but it seems like I got a system boot failure and don't know how to fix it. Please do help me .
