I have experinced no video from many problems
I suggest you...
clear the BIOS either with a jumper or by pulling the CMOS battery...
remake all connections IDE, agp, pci, memory
If nesseccary clean all exposed terminals with a napkin and 99%
isopropil(rubbing alchol)
Also pull out any non essientil cards
Bare bone bios test would be the motherboard ,CPU,memory,and video
card only attached, after clearing CMOS and remaking connections...
good luck my friend
