Ok, so i just received an XPC shuttle PC from someone that I bought of from and i'm getting a no display problem! Here's what happen...
when I first got it, it had everything seperated from the mobo, so I just reconnected everything. Boot it up and it displays, I mess around with the min requirement and fans and etc in BIOS. Then I shut it off as I needed to connect the DVD drive so I can install Wins XP on the new IDE harddrive. After installing the DVD drive, I boot it up and theres NO display!!! I tried using the d-sub and DVI cables on the monitor but no luck.
Then I checked the following to see if it could be the problem..
1. Video card, the fan on it is running and doesnt *seem* to be the problem or could be...
2. Harddrive is running fine (can hear it)
3. Ram was warm when I took them out so I believe it was working
4. CPU was or should be working fine + heatsink
5. Mobo is getting power through it i think.... is there a way to check?
what other thing could it be?
But I did took out the CMOS battery and left it out for almost half a day.. after putting it back in for the first time boot it runs and displays...but then this problem strucks...
any solutions?
