Can someone please help me!!!
Its a problem that I've had in the past and all of a sudden its come back to haunt me!!!
I recently got a new video card, and whenever I try to start up my computer, the monitor stays 'orange' (on standby). The system starts up ok, the fan is going, but no monitor action.
Everytime it does it I have to open my case and remove/re-insert the video card and it works fine again! BUT it almost does it everytime, and I am getting sick of having to do this to my videocard everytime it does it...eventually I'm gonna fry something!!!! HELP ME!!!
