One of my computers will not start up, no hard drive, no display, nada. I am thinking my video card has crapped out. The system specs are:
HP Pavillion 531w
Windows XP
1GHz Intel Celeron
256MB RAM
(not sure of the video card, probably generic)
Intel chipset, though I don't remember what actual set
Going by memory here, but I can't get anything for video. I do have a digital test meter, and tomorrow before heading out for Thanksgiving, I plan on opening up the hood to see if I can get voltages to the PCI slot. Maybe the card is loose, I will check that tomorrow. Any ideas of what I can check anyone ?
