Hi I am quite new here, registered just a minute ago!

The problem is that, when I turn on my computer, it doesn't load windows!
It does not boot, there is no beeb, or anything like that! The screen just stays blank, and there is no massage!! The lights next to the power botton stay solid, they don't blink at all! I tried the jumper on mother board, but it didn't help! I also took out the BIOS battery, and it didnt boot! I put the battery back but it still didnt boot! What should I do? I dont really want to buy a new video card or smth!!! Please help me!!

Can you check to see that everything is seated properly in the PC?

Have you removed all unnecassary peripherals connected to the PC (i.e. external USB drives, printers, scanners, etc) and then try to restart.

Also, try to remove/reseat the RAM and video cards. Also reset the power connector on the Mobo.

Ram...sounds like a ram issue. If you have two take them out and try one at a time.
