Hey guys,
I really don't know why this keeps happening to me, but this is the second display issue I encountered since the last time I had to post Q's on forums.
I wanted to install Windows XP Pro SP3 onto my little cousin's fairly old PC but encountered a difficulty. I hooked up her PC to my monitor and everything else that goes with it, but could not get anything displayed on the monitor. I don't even get POST message displayed to enter BIOS to load Windows OS. The monitor and PC is connected using VGA/D-Sub cable. I cannot fly blind so I took the HDD and mounted that onto my desktop and installed WinXP from there. I placed her HDD back into her PC, hooked up the cables and fired it up... No signal, no display, black screen. The monitor went to Sleep mode.
Why cant I get anything displayed on the monitor?

-Intel Celeron CPU
-Markvision DDR333 512MB RAM
-300Watt PSU
-Biostar U8668-D motherboard
