Odd Video Card Problem

I have an ASUS A7A266 motherboard and recently I turned on the system and the monitor would not receive the video signal.

After ten minutes of making sure the monitor cable was in correctly and that the card was in the AGP slot, I had no results. So, I swapped out the ASUS V7700 graphics card and put in a GeForce2 MX. Still no video signal.

At this point I put the ASUS V7700 into a completely different system and it worked fine. Next I took this completely different system with the ASUS V7700 in it and used the same monitor has the first system (which wasn?t receiving a video signal from the system with the A7A266), the monitor worked fine.

So, I figured the AGP slot was non functional on the A7A266. So I RMA it and get a new board. Same exact problem still. Any ideas?
 
Maybe they tested the board, and decided there is nothing wrong with it and send you the same board back. Did you check the serial number on the new board to see if it is the same as the one on the old board?
 
I had the same problem with an Elsa TNT2 32mb one time, it just stopped working in that particular system. After two days of fiddling I went out and bought a new vid card. Get home, figure, eh I'll try the Elsa one more time, stick it in, it works. It's still working. No idea what caused it.

:-(
 
power supply?
have an a7a266 right here in front of me(friend's comp)--but that isn't my problem
it's running two 256 ddrs incorrectly--yes i saw the faq, so i think we strate now
but good luck to you
 
The agp slot may have gone bad...Do you have an old pci vid card lying aroud you could throw in there and test the board out?
