Problem with PC

Edo · 7 Mar 2014 at 22:49

just wondering if anyone can help, my computer does not display a screen, i get a screen for a small amount of time but it will just goes off, (very rare it comes on) so i assumed it was the integrated graphics on the board, as the computer is running fine just not displaying a screen, i have tested the monitor on another computer and it works fine. I have also tried different ram and the same problem occurred, i even changed my motherboard and again the same problem.... any suggestions on what it could be, could it be the CPU? some people say yeah and others say no...
could it be a corrupt hard drive?

im very confused, any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks

You say you get a screen image for a sec? Do you see the gigabyte splash screen and can you enter the BIOS if you press the delete key?

If you can access the BIOS make sure you flash to latest version,also try with DVI/vga/hdmi ports if your monitor supports them

If you have it, trying a VGA port could be worth a shout as some motherboard will only show anything through VGA until the drivers are loaded.

Tried DVi and also I don even see the gigabyte screen it just goes straight to windows I had it working fine for about 3 months then this problem occurred!
