Does the computer appear to start ok?.. do you get the single bleep?.. does
the power light come on?.. do you see activity from the hard drive LED?..
with the case open, are the fans rotating?.. can you feel slight vibration
from the hard drive?..

Hi all - I'm trying to fix a friend's pc but I can't see anything on the
monitor. I've tried 2 different monitors with the same results. The only
thing I get is the green monitor light blinking. The cord is plugged in
snuggly so I'm thinking his graphics card has called it quits. Could this
the problem? The computer is a Dell Dimensions L500CX. I think it's an
onboard card.
Would it be safe to tell him to go buy another card or just get another
computer?
Thanks,
newtechie
