ive just built my own system, got the monitor today and just finsihed off all the stuff. plugging evenrthing in an when i put the xp CD in and boot up the system, the monitor just says 'no input found' or something around that. Ive checked the cabling, and cant see why its doing it, anyone else got any ideas?? cheers

look at the gfx card, make sure that it is plugged in firmly.

btw PHProxy, what is that. Perhaps pm me a link.

• No more than 1 videocard?

If there's an integrated VGA on the mainboard and also you installed another one, change the cable to the other VGA, go to BIOS and change the option of wich one to use.

nope, just the one, a GeForce 7800GT, and its a totally new card and mobo, besides, i cant even access the bios setup - my monitor isnt showing anything

EDIT: nope, checked the card and its plugged in firmly and rechecked the cables for the monitor, its still saying 'no input signal'

Have you tried another monitor?

im just rebuilding, its not booting properly: no beep to say its loading, so i think its my hardware skilz, lol.

its not that i told everyone about my proxy, its that i challenged the techies in our school, and went on naughty websites, they found out and next thing i know: the head of IT and Maths pulls me up and warns me officially, calls me an extremely clever young person but the techie has a psysics degree from Cambridge Uni (top 5 in the world )
