my nephew gave me his old pc complaining the screen had gone blank,so i tested it at home and sure enough the pc posts but will not boot to windows
i have no warning beeps everything goes fine but just a blank screen
firstly ii thought it might br the AGP slot but have tried 2 mobos with same results the graphics is an old 4600ti why would the card show the post screen and bios picture perfect then nothing else while booting to windows :confused:
 
I had a similar problem a few years back when I was at university. When i logged onto different computers on the network, sometimes the screen would go blank. It turned out to be that the older monitors couldnt handle the resolution I'd set my profile on.

So my advice would be to either try it with a different monitior or in windows safe mode. That or of course the card is screwed!!

PK!
