my mom's computer is acting up, the computer runs but the monitor doesn't show anything (little light is yellow, not green). there's one long beep followed by three short ones. i think it's something wrong with the vid card, but i'm not sure. any help is appreciated, thanks!

thanks!

Try to remove the card, inspect contact points, maybe clean it with alcohol before putting it back and try again.
