Well, I recently bought a Abit IS7 mobo from someone on the for sale/trade forum and set it up. (Ground strap the whole time)
After getting cables/memory/video/drives/etc all in place and secured I hooked up the kb/mouse/monitor and booted...
Everything started up, except video. Fan on the video card spun up and all, just no output.
I popped the case back open and removed/inserted the video card, in case of a bad connection. Same problem. Tried 2 more video cards, each with the same issue.
All these video cards work, in fact they all work in my other IS7, so it definately isn't them. I've tried both booting while holding insert, and resetting the BIOS to no avail.
No beeps, no error codes, nothing, it's almost as if it was perfectly running, except no video.
Any ideas? Should I be returning this as DOA?
