    Hi All , I hope somebody out there can help me

    I have an Iqon PC with a asus p4s8l board in it.
    It has VGA , DMI , S-Video , but nothing seems to work.
    The PC turns on and makes all the usual noise's but no display.
    I have been told that it was woking on a LCD TV with DMI on it,
    It does not work for me.
    Any help would be greatful:(

    ram could be the problem, re seat it ,try separate sticks, and if that doesn't work maybe reset the bios.

    you'll have a plastic cap, it's square and it goes over 2 pins on the mobo, it will be next to the round silver battery (cmos battery)

    search youtube how to reset bios.

    the first thing to do is if you can is try another monitor on it
    if you don't have a monitor and can't borrow one is if you have s-video cables try and hook it up to your telly
    most likely it could be your video card, is it onboard graphics or a separate card?
    try and reseat the card if you have one, in fact try and reseat everything like the memory, cables etc.
