I get no picture from this card the upteenth time I plugged it in again. I could hear I stressed the card when I plugged it in. Funny thing is that the board still boots without a care in the world but no picture!
Will Diamond repair or replace this do you think?
 
What mobo & bios do you have? What is the pattern of beeps as the system boots up?
 
Dan, you twit! What I said was the system would boot up completely oblivious to the fact I had no picture I could see!
 
1. I asked the question because a certain pattern of beeps tells you there is indeed a problem with the video card. That's something many people overlook.

2. How do you know your board is booting up "without a care in the world?"

3. Have you tried a different video card?

4. Given your self-diagnosis that you're a "schizoid" I'll assume it was your evil half that called me a twit.
 
ha ha I have plenty more evil where that came from but that's not what schizoid really means.
No, really the computer will get through POST and start loading Windows whilst I see just a blank screen. WTF? My system is fine, I can get PCI VGA and AGP VGA with the MAXX.
