Hey guys,
I've had a problem that my monitor didn't turn on when i turned on the
computer.
After trying another graphics card, relocating and cleaning all the slots
and the whole computer from the inside, nothing helped.
I was told to try to clear the CMOS with the jumper on the mother
board and relocating the jumper to where it was after 20 seconds.
(i didn't turn on the computer when the jumper was in the clear position).
Now the monitor lights up and gives me one beep and after a few
seconds of running things up it says that i need to reconfigure the CPU setting in the CMOS.
So i press DEL to enter the BIOS setup and after a few seconds in the blue screen of the bios, everything freezes.
Worst is that it now gets stuck even before i enter the BIOS and i see the first screen that lights up when i turn on the computer but with
weird pixel chips on the screen and half letters thrown around the screen.
Im running a 3ghz intel pentium 4 with a gigabyte mother board (i can
check the model if its important).
What could it be?
Regards,
Roi.
