Thanks for the reply. What happened was the night before I was using the computer no problem, woke up next day and the monitor wouldnt come on and made a ticking sound, the graphics I have are agp, motherboard has onboard graphics too but the monitor wont show on that either, its an old pc anyway like really old lol sempron processor, fx5200 graphics and 512 ddr so yeahive had years out of it haha built it myself 7 years ago

I know the moniter works,sadly I cant get hold of any other moniters to try. 1 thing imworried may be causing me a problem is thatmy old keyboard didnt seem to work right (dodgy connection) so i went and bought a new usb 2.0 one but that dosnt seem to work either but my mouse is getting power no problem, ive tried the usb in several differant sockets but still nothing, this is preventing me using the f8 method

Hi My last CRT monitor died on me, so I bought a another 1, but it wont display anything, the screen size is alot larger than my last one, my computer starts up and makes all the normal noises but the monitor dosnt show anything and the power light goes on and off with an orange color, its not displaying the no signal message, Anyone know what is causing this?
