check your power, reset, and hd light etc.. for being disconnected! other than that where does the system get to now anyway? does it accually start to post or is it totally dead? Can you hear the fans spinning ?

We posted at the exact same time. Have you messed with the settings on your monitor? Tried a different monitor? Tried a different graphics card? Try a different power supply.

check your processor to make sure it did'nt get bumped out of place! I personally dont think its your video card you would hear beeps if it was. Its either your cabling, cpu, PS, or motherboard! Its probally not your powersuppy if your hearing the fans turn! So I would first try reseting the bios with the jumper on the board if that fails pull the batterie out for the night and try again tommarro! If that fails it most likely either a dead board or CPU so just make sure those cables are all hooked properly and that the processor was not knocked around from the ride! also if you have more than one stick of ram try pulling them all out one by one and circulating them till your out of options!
