HI,

I build custom, quiet Digital Audio Workstations (DAW) as a hobby business - email me if you want to see my web site. I use Asus P4C800-E Deluxe as the motherboards.

Fedex has managed to damaged 2 of my custom computers during shipping. The first had notable signs of damage to the case. Now I double box the computers, however, Fedex has now damaged a second computer. It arrived & appears to have been "shaken up" alittle bit (the disks were dislodged). I've had dislodged disks several times but usually the work just fine, i.e., they were not damaged.

The computer boots up but no video is displayed, even when a new video card has been installed. Both damaged computers exhibited this even though the motherboard shows no damage & the video card was functioning properly.

My question is: any ideas could have happened to the motherboard that might caus this problem? Should I try clearing the CMOS? It seems like the motherboard could sustain some "shaking/rolling" since it is tightly hosed to computer case.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as my client would like to use his new DAW.

Thanks in advance.

Mike
