Author Help! NO Video Display!
Tim Young

Hello,

I'm upgrading a PC for a friend and it has AGP on-board video. Mini ATX type. It powers up fine. The hard drives spin
and the leds light up like normal. But, there is no video display at all. I even tried switching monitors and still.. no
video. There are no jumpers on the mobo to disable/enable the on-board video either. It has no AGP slot but, three PCI
slots. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Purchase a PCI video card..sounds like the integrated one is blown. They tend to be pretty cheap.

what you can try is booting with a PCI video card and possibly flash the
motherboard BIOS and see if it helps. However, it might be the onboard video
is dead.

As far as I know you can have a mobo with AGP video without an AGP slot. It
could have integrated video, but then it's not AGP. JB.

Did you check the Motherboard BIOS to make sure that the Onboard Video is Enabled? If so, are you
sure it is set to AGP and not PCI?
