Ok, my nVidia GeForce 440 PCI 64Mb is shot. But the BIOS is set to read that card for the display. So, when I turn the computer on, the monitor stays blank, but there is no "check cable" message. How can I reset the BIOS settings to defaults so I can plug the monitor cable into the integrated intel video card and get some video feedback? Help is greatly appreciated!the exact procedure for resetting the bios is different for different motherboards, sometimes as others have said it's a matter of changing a jumper for a short period of time, others it's a matter of shorting 2 pins together, refer to your manual.
You can also remove your bios battery for a couple of hours then replace battery and start your PC. (when you do this also have your PC unplugged from the power.
Also don't forget to move your video cable from the crapped out video card output to the on board video socket. (easy to forget to do, makes one feel like an idiot when you haven't done it)
