I have a problem with my computer. Before I begin, the motherboard in question is an ECS 7050. I know that the motherboard SUCKS but I'm poor and did a build on a budget. Anyways, now that I've cleared that up, everytime I have the video card installed, the computer starts acting weird. The symptoms are quite odd. Usually there is a blank screen when turned on. However, if it gets past this part (and the bios information is displayed), the screen usually goes blank when logging into windows. If there is no crash here, then I'll be able to use the computer for some time before the video decides to quit. Do you think that it's my video card or motherboard?

I can use the onboard video on the motherboard perfectly fine. The problem ONLY occurs when I have my video card installed. Unfortunately, I do not have another video card to test this computer with.

Unfortunately, the only way to be sure is to try another card.

Can you borrow one?
