I have a GeForce4 4200 video card and I think it may be bad. All of a sudden while playing 3D games, the screen goes blank and my monitor appears to go into sleep mode with the moniter power light blinking. I tried rebooting my computer but now I get no picture at all, not even the bios post message. My monitor says that it is good and to check the video cables or computer because it is not getting a video signal. I replaced this card with an old Geforce 256 and the computer boots normally now and I get a normal picture. Is my new video card bad and how can I test it? Thanks

You should reinsert the card back into that agp slot my card would sometime work it's way loose.

good luck,

Budman's suggestion is a good one. Before you leave it for dead, make sure you are *completely* inserting it into the AGP slot and it is fully seated.

I had a card that did the exact thing you're describing, and this solved it.
