Hope someone can help, my computer crashed and when i restarted it it just wont come back on at all. I keep getting check signal cable message come up. The lights on my tower are on and ive tried 3 different monitors and it keeps saying the same thing, so it seems to be the tower although the power is going to that because the lights on the tower are on, ive checked all the cables. I hope someone here can help.
thanks
Kalax

open it see if any little or big cables might have unplugged.
Does it allow you to get to the Bios?

Ive had a look inside and i cant see anything loose but the tower must be working because the router thats connected to it is still sending the signal to this computer upstairs.
Any suggestion are much appreciated
thanks again

Check the cable between your monitor and video card. It must be loose.

does it appear to be going thru it's boot sequence but just nothing on the screen? try reseating the videocard or try another videocard even a pci version just to see if works or not.

Try clearing the CMOS. Check your motherboard manual to find out how you doit.
