hi, my specs are basically:
q6600 @ 3.0ghz
8800gtx @ 650mhz/2000mhz
ram @ 833mhz (5-5-5-15)
basically when my pc has been off for a long time (psu still plugged in), when i press the swich to turn it on, it all boots up fine, but nothing comes up on the monitor.. (however it still boots up to windows and ends up on the desktop just fine, cos im able to alt-f4 restart blindly)
instead i normally wait a few mins until i see the hdd loading light is off, then i press the restart button, and then it boots up fine again, and the monitor turns on!
anyone know why this may be? i think it could be because the cpu or the gfx card may need time to heat up or something?
any comments welcomed! thanks
