55256 2002-06-19 23:26:00 While doing normal work either on line or off. computer goes to a black screen with the window saying 'no input signal'. If I reset an audible alarm starts. I need to completely shut the computer down. And usually wait for some time before it will start up normally. This has been happening since I recently had to fix the cd as the draw came off it's guides. easily repared. Plugged back in and the problems started from then. I did not touch any ther hardware so cant think why this is happening. The Cd goes fine since repair. Checked cables etc they seem to be fine as PC works ok in between shuting down. Any ideas?

The usual cause of the 'No Input Signal' is either a faulty monitor cable connection or video card / cables or occassionaly the monitor itself.

See the following quick guide.

I suspect it is the video card. Real strange as I didn't touch anything like that when taking out the cd Rom.

Anyways you get a chance to double check the seating of the video card / cables etc.

All the best.
