INtegrated Video Problems

DermotC · 06-04-2008, 06:09 AM

Hi,

I am working on an old pc for a friend (PB Club 60 with integrated video). When PC is switched on power is coming through and the OS is starting up. I know this as it is Win 98 because when it is finished booting up I am able to shut it down using the keyboard. However there is no video and I suspect there is a problem with the integrated video. Is there any way of testing it to verify that that is where the problem lies??

Thanks

First check another monitor. Then, if you have multiple RAM modules, remove one at a time. Next, you would need to try another video card.

Thanks, tried another monitor though - same problem. Couldn't get hold of a video card so I took another look at the video outlet and noticed it was loose. Fiddled about with it, plugged back in the cable and presto - working again. But I'll need to get a video card all the same.
