Hi there,several months ago i invested in a set of components from ocuk,the system ran out of box all this time then the video cards fan died.ocuk quickly replaced it (cheers guys) and i set up the system with the new card...however now the system wont post:ie the mobo light is on,the peripherals and hdd are turning,but no display,the monitor reckons theres no signal and the mouse and keyboard are unresponsive.
now then i cleared the cmos as the manual says to do,checked asus forums (apparently this mobo is a heap of **** :P) and i am wondering now if any real mobo kings might know of something i am missing,or maybe i can do to get playing my high graphics games again?
 
Have you got another GFX card to try?

May be worth trying the other VGA/DVI port in case one of them is duff.

Its possible you may have a dead gfx card.
 
This seems to be a common problem with P5Ns. I've had two do the exact same thing to me within minutes for the first and a couple of hours for the second. You're lucky you got so long from it :p

Did you notice the computer freeze up before this happened? That's what happened with both of mine. Then my symptoms are the exact same as yours. I doubt it's your graphics card. My graphics card worked fine in another motherboard. Now though when I put it in my old motherboard it has slowly died so I think the faulty motherboard may have damaged it :mad:

The GC worked fine between the first and second P5N in my old motherboard though so that wasn't the problem. Definite RMA time.
 
I think the OP has a different board to you. The OP has the original one with the NF4 chipset and the big red northbridge heatsink.
 
Yes I did notice the pc hang a few times,i put that down to the failing graphics card,this board does indeed have a big red heatsink,it is definately not the p5nsli-e.
looks like i got me a dead duck,any advice on a new mobo? particularly to use the dual core2 6300,corsair ddr2.i thought asus were meant to be good,from their support forum i am suprised people still buy asus :(

oh i noticed ocuk doesnt sell this board anymore,dagnabit better go to pcworld for some great offers
