881492 2010-05-01 08:55:00 Another dopey question. Is the monitor plugged into an onboard card or a new card you just installed? Have you tried the monitor on another PC? Sweep (90)
881493 2010-05-01 08:57:00 OK. The monitor worked three days ago but have you tried same monitor on another box?

Did you get one beep earlier which would be usual?
