I am not sure what the exact name of the download I installed, but if I could get to my files I would tell you. I have put everything back to original condition before I opened case. I have a new PCI Express Card but the manual says that the onboard graphics card needs to be disabled which is sort of a problem since I can't get to Device Manager. I also have a new Power supply (550W PCI-EXPRESS Comenetor 12CM Fan) not yet installed. IF you follow link above it shows you all available updates for my system.
Yes all fan are running internal drive starts my mouse even light up and flashes. On startup my mouse before I lost signal would flash when my pc was loading and it still does same thing now. So it sounds and looks like it is loading.
Have you tested the monitor on another computer to make sure it in fact works properly.
Do you have another monitor that you can try, even borrow a monitor from a friend that you know is a good working monitor ?
Yes i have another monitor one of the old ones that takes up the space of your whole pc desk it displays no signal also...and my LCD flat screen is less than a year old and it was working great till I went to dell support to update my graphics card.
Is the new PCIe graphics card installed or not? If yes which video (VGA) connector is the monitor connected too? You want to be very careful with the motherboard jumpers, especially the clear CMOS jumper. Incorrect placement of that jumper can and has damaged motherboards on power up.
I did have my jumpers in the wrong place, but i lost the display signal after I ran a "Dell Recommended Diagnostics" using PC Checkup in Dell Support Center 3.0 and it said my graphics card needed updated. After istalling the update it starts up lights up sounds like it has always done but my monitor stopped receiving a signal. THAT is when i moved jumpers. I am almost ready draw a BIG target on it and get my Winchester 270 and put a few rounds into it.
