Hey guys thanks in advance for the help.

My computer specs are in my sig. When I boot up I get 1 long beep and 2 short beeps.
I know this is a display adapter problem.

I tried to reseat my GPU and I unplugged and replugged all my DVI cables, but the problem still comes up.

Could it be a messed up mobo or GPU?

Any ideas?
 
those beeps sound like faulty gpu, 1 long 2 short.

Reseat the gpu, which you have already done, also reseat the memory, its worth a shot.

Also when reseating items, blow their slots with some air just incase something is in their and causing that beeps.

If you have another video card, can you test that in the pc ? or do you have another pc that you can test the video card in ?

Thats it from me I am afraid, because usually 1 long 2 short beeps means soemthing to do with the video card and if you have already reseated it and inspected the card for damage and found nothing, then the card could just be dead unless you can find out for sure by testing in another rig.

Reseat the ram just incase and also check for anything else that maybe loose and not plugged in properly.
 
Unfortuntely I dont have another PC to test out the GPU and I dont have another GPU. Man I just got this card a few months ago I guess I have to RMA it.

I try the reseating the ram and hope for the best.

Thanks for the help.
 
Have you got a friend that will let you try your card in their system?
 
i agree with the memory changing.. ive had this happen to me before.. and switching the ram between slots magicly fixed it..
