GA-EX58-EXTREME problem

[xseson23]

hey people, I have a problem with my 4 years old EX58,

today I run my pc and works like charm, everything was just fine, till I put in on sleep and came back later to run it when I got to see nothing more, no screen, just nothing, so I thought it'll be solved if I restart the hole thing again, so I did, but still no post, no screen, just flat black screen.

I opened up the case and look at it, when I reboot the display goes to C1 at first and than after seconds goes back to FF ( which I believe means the systeem is booting just fine ).

I was recently having problems with my card, which I believe is the main problem!

this is what i did to solve the issue:

1. CMOS reset
2. cleard the battery ( left it out for like 20min)
3. buffer clear

it's seems nothing is helping, as I said I am strong believer that it all comes to my ATI card, but how can I make sure that? what if the RAM itself? or other things?


any help would be much appreciated.

thanx

Re: GA-EX58-EXTREME problem

it could be graphic card

if it was memory it would stop on c1 memory error, ff means a successful boot

you can also try a longer cmos clear,leave battery out for an hour just to be sure
