Video Display Problem

I have a Asus P5B-Deluxe M/B with ati radeon x1600 it wont display anything at startup computer is fine and running video isnt showing though any ideas thx in advance.

My Specs:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo
M/B: Asus P5B-Deluxe
PSU: Antec Smart Power 500w
HD: Maxtor 200gb

 

I had this problem once, well simliar.

Does the motherboard have Intergrated Graphics? Also, when browsing the web, is sites really like choppy, and scrolling very slow?

 

I think hes saying it doesnt show anything at all

 

He says at startup, and he has problems running video, surely that means windows will load, and from the description it sounds like there is intergrated graphics on the motherboard, and they havent been disabled in windows properly.

But in case he did mean at all, check that the Power connector is plugged into the graphics card and that it is properly seated in the PCI-E slot. I was going to say maybe its an issue with the power supply, but i can see he has a really nice Power supply there

 

It's fine I fixed it. It seemed it was just that the power connector was loose and didn't notice it. sorry for taking so long to reply so tired I had to return some stuff at fry's electronics and with the whole after thanksgiving sale it was a mess lol.

 

glad you fixed it , if i ever rebuild my pc, sometimes i forget to plug the power connector back in

 

It can't have been integrated graphics since his motherboard doesn't have any.

 

I know that now, but did not before
