Hello. I'm building my second 8RDA+ system (this week, heh).
EP-8RDA+
AthlonXP 2000+
Geforce MX440
512MB PC2100 Crucial DDRRAM
Onboard sound/NIC
DVD-ROM/CD-RW
40MB Maxtor 7200RPM
Pretty standard. Anyway, I hooked it up to my Inwin case, and when I hit power, all the fans start, I get booting sounds (whirrs and all of DVD-ROM and HD), and the motherboard displays "FF" in the box, which usually means it's fine. Problem is, I get no video.
Problem is, I guess this could be caused by a number of things. The power supply and all is fine, because this is a used case I just pulled apart. I swapped out with a working video card, and it still doesn't work, so it's not the AGP slot (probably not the card either). I checked all connections and power, RAM, fans, etc., but still get no video. Monitor and wire is fine, too. I'll check the video card in another machine, but I think that's fine as well.
Any suggestions? Any way I can test to find the culprit? Nothing went drastically wrong in installation, and as far as I know I was always grounded. Thanks.
