I have been given a Emachine T1115 running xp. Before I got it I saw it working but when I got it the power supply had gone up in smoke. You could smell it. So I changed the power supply first thing. Now when I try to start the computer there is nothing on the monitor. There is just nothing I can't get in to setup at least I can't see it if I have. I have tried three different monitors two are just blank and one tells me to "check the signal cable". I would try a different video card but how would I disable the onboard video since I can't get into the bios? Any help out there?
