My PC lost its video, the monitor shows nothing at all, but the PC seems

but all the signs show normal.

The monitor is checked ok with another PC, and the video card in the
problematic PC is switched, same result.

I have built PCs for years, this is the first time that I encounter such
a strange problem. Gurus, help please.

The PC is 4 years old XP.

Possibly the power supply or motherboard is hosed then. But, do you see
any display during boot? Can you get to the BIOS or Safe Mode and get a
display?


I only can tell from the noise of booting, everything seems ok, but
absolutely no screen, did not try getting into BIOS, but I believe it'll
be the same result of no screen.

Ths computer was built by myself and used for 4 years, very good and
powerful, this problem happened only two months ago, in the beginning,
every 4 - 5 boots, I might get the screen by luck, now, it is absolutely
no screen.
