NX8600GT, blank screen after reboot.

Chizzle

So, I was just gonna reboot my computer yesterday, and now my screen is blank.
It tries to get a signal it looks like (switching between digital/analog.) But it can't.. I'm using the DVI output. Also the card is PCI-E.
Sounds like it's booting Vista though.
Swapped for my older 7600gt (also DVI and PCI-E), and it still works.
So I guess it's not my screen. (Samsung SyncMaster 226BW)

Got a 550W power supply from Apevia by the way.

At the moment it just looks like the card is dead. :confused:
All fans are working.. didn't play any game, install any driver or anything like that before I restarted either.
Tried to update my BIOS. Didn't solve the issue however.

So just to be clear, with my NX8600GT I don't see anything at all. Not the bootup or anything.

Any ideas?
 
ATI and Nvid have had the blank bootup problem. It's usually something wrong with the driver. If you reseat the DVI cable on teh card do you see the screen come up?
 
hey.

nah, nothing like that works. tried taking it out, even dusting it. and the dvi cable has been taken in and out a good amount of times now :P

Edit: I've got vista now. but then again, I don't even see the boot screen. so windows doesn't have anything to do with it.
