Frenz,

This is my problem. After formatting, ok but then as I go along, then suddenly monitor turn black-out but is not monitor fault because the monitor light flashes as though on standby etc. Now everytime like that. I am suspecting the VGA. What do you guys think? Please reply ASAP ok.... Now I am using company com to do this.

Simple say, monitor turn off. Num Lock light off. but computer not restart nor shut down.

We need a lot more details than that.

When does it happen? When is 'as I go along'? Num lock off doesn't mean anything. But whether the Numlock works means a lot of things.

after hours of reading ...

i think he meant while reformatting windows ... suddenly the monitor just turned blank

..

.. hmmm

Yeah more details is needed. I read this as when you formatted your monitor went into stand-by meaning orange light and your can't restart or turn your PC off.

You didn't touch anything after?

Did you try to pull the power cord or hold the power button for 5 secs to turn it off?

Does it POST at all?

Yup.. probably card.

Darwayth · 23rd Apr 2006, 07:45 AM

As Shorter stated "probably card", not seated correctly, or power supply. Open your case and press down to make sure its seated correctly, and power lead attached (as i GF6800-7800 etc). If all ok leave side off case and have another crack at installing. If it works than there is a heating problem, or GXF card is cactus.....but as the rest of the guys said more info the better
