how old is your monitor? i have had problems with old monitors with new video cards ( by old i mean old not 1 or 2 years old )

put your old video card BACK in the computer and see if that works.. then you know if its your monitor ot the grapHICS card.. then you can go from there. when you put your old card back in go into the setting and change the refresh rate to 60.. then put the new one back in and try again

cool thx i gona try it out!!

my monitor is about 3years old ....

Double check the card is seated properly, also look out for any possible shorts i.e. bare components touching the case or whatever...

[noob]

thx

well the Grafikcard shoud be 100% right on the place but i haven't check if any things touch the case...

I tested yesterday with a new Monitor (Benq 17" flat) about 1 year old and it don't go one neighter

I gona bring back the Motherboard i think there it have to be any failure... perhaps a bios upgrade woud it do?!?

Witch Motherboard shoud i buy for my hardwarespezifikation... this pc will run as a server with Raid5 and also serve as a GamePc for me

noob, what you need to do is start back at basics. disconnect all the hard disks, CDROM, CDRW etc drives from you machine, the lot, then just have your motherboard, 1 stick of memory, your processor (you have put thermal paste on the chip before you put the heatsink on it i hope)

And your graphics card put it down in there, you have connected the additional power adapter on the graphics card, stupid as it sounds i've known some people to forget that.

Have you got a decent PSU to run all that kit, i'd say you'd want at least a 465W enermax/antec, or a current popular choice is the 550w CWT unit.

[noob]

well the power for the Graficcard is on... i try it with an other p-supply.... and I got the "Thermaltake W0010RE, Silent Purepower 480W" don't shoud that be enought?

[Tom]

that is an excellent PSU you just got mate i have the 420w version

[Enverex]

You are sure that the monitor actually works, right?

[noob]

aye with that old pc i have no problem with the monitor... well i think that the agp port is defekt on the motherboard...i will get a new board... thx a lot for HELP

[noob]

Woot The pc runs now!!

it was a defekt AGP-Port!! damn ASUS!!

well a TIP for that one who got the saim problem... try to conact a PCI Graficcard and watch if it runs with that... when yes .. than the AGP-Port is defekt..... and when u don't conact a powersupply to the Graficcard.. so a message comes at POST like "the Graficcard haven't been conactet to the Power-supply".

But with the BIOS that i have i can't increase the voltage of RAM's;CPU.... i only can overcloke in % ... like
Overcloak 5%;10%;15;....... what is that... does it increas the voltage of all components? well i gana watch for a new BIOS Update that support the overcloaking!

THX A LOT and a Happy NEW YEAR to ALL!!
