Wish I could have been more help. Glad you got it fixed though.

Was working perfectly fine last night. Unplugged it, opened it up and dusted it out today, went to put it back together and it turns on and runs just fine but I'm not getting signal to my monitor.

What I've tried:

Checking to make sure all plugs are plugged in and in their proper spot.

Made sure the ram was seated.

Tried booting with 1 stick of ram then the other.

Tried ram in different slots individually.

Removed cmos for a few seconds and inserted a new one.

Any ideas?


Were you mean to it?

Wiggle the cable and see if the cable is good. Might be a bad cable.

How much water and where? You don't want water anywhere near any of the contact points (PCI lanes, etc)

I just unplug everything and spray it down with a pressure washer, let sit to dry and reinstall
