ben_riley Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I've had my ASUS desktop for a little over a year now, it has just run out of Warranty and it has started to now break. It turns on, makes all the normal sounds and noises of a turned on computer, fans moving and usual bleeping sounds but on the screen it says theres no "signal input" and it remains blank in this odd state. I leave the computer in this coma like state and it does nothing! Its not the ram as ive tested it in other machines, and its not the bios battery as ive replaced that with a fresh one! I've removed the wireless card, and changed the kettle lead but nothing. I used to be able to leave it for 20 mins and reboot it and it would start, but now i can leave it for hours in its "coma like state" and it just wont start? Any ideas? Its slowly driving me mad!!

andyhargreaves Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Is the monitor connected properly? If so, try a different/replacement graphics card. If it is a separate graphics card rather than on-board then check it is pushed in properly. Andy Quote
ben_riley Posted January 24, 2007 Author Posted January 24, 2007 Would that cause it to periodically freeze? Quote
Jamey Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 Yes it would cause it to freeze. RAM is often the cause though and you've replaced that. I'd do as Andy suggested and check the card is seated correctly. Quote
aaronaldo Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 i had the same problem with my pc,no signal input,found out that the motherboard went so i had to get a new pc,that is just a possibilitie Quote
Jamey Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Yes, or another possibiltiy is the CPU. Although, often nowadays the CPU is more expensive than the motherboard. So it is a toss up as to which to replace. However, remember you can always return something you bought online or by mail order under the Distance Sellings Act. Quote
ben_riley Posted February 26, 2007 Author Posted February 26, 2007 Thanks guys, the motherboard was fried so replaced it and the computer was back to its old self! Thx for all the help Quote
