I have an X1900XT and a ViewSonic VX2025WM connected via DVI. It's worked since the day I set it up two months ago.

One day I come home, turn on my PC, turn on the monitor, but I get no signal...

I made sure everything is connected correctly (even though I didn't touch it) and even tried a different DVI cable but still nothing.

What's up? I figured next thing I'd do would be to take the video card out and see if it works then, but I was wondering if I missed something easy. Help?

If not the videocard.... then if ur motherboard chipset has a fan to cool it off check if that is also spinning or not.... also check qall other fans if they r spinning or not when u power ur system.... I also get sometimes no video when the cheap chipset fan stops turning on my MSI NEO2 platinum....

Quite a screwup...

*To the OP. Try to open up your PC and make sure everything (RAM and GFX card especially) is seated correctly.
