Solve : Video card failure?? |
|
Answer» Hi, new to forum and in need of advice please. I connected my PC to my TV via as s-video cable, and my PC desktop appeared (and still does appear) on my TV. However, after restarting my PC I lost any display on my monitor (including pre-Windows boot screens). The video card, which is only 4 months old, is an ATI RADEON 9600 XT. In the ATI Catalyst Control Center software, the TV and monitor are configured as 'Main'/'Clone' respectively. Any attempt to disable/remove the TV as a display does not restore graphics on the monitor. Before I return the card for replacement, I would like to know whether this appears to be a failed video card, or would the fact that I can view the PC desktop on my TV suggest that the card is fine and the problem lies elsewhere (misconfiguration, etc)? Thanks for any reply on this subject. |
