See it being the MB unless your GC is on board, if you have spare PCI slot check with spare GC.

Hope it helps.

Did you try booting into safemode and see if your graphics look ok? Also try updating the BIOS to the latest patch.

You have a system that is intermittently displaying the No Video Input on the Monitor when it is turned on.

If that is the case try replacing the Power Supply with a Known Good one and see if that makes a difference.

I have seen cases in the past where a failing Power Supply causes this to happen and in one case when it finally died the owner bought a new M'Board, CPU, RAM and everything but a Power Supply and this didn't make any difference. When they finally brought it to me I replaced the PS and it's worked ever since. I also supplied another case and PS and they now have a second system.

The symptoms are that the monitor remains blank when there is no power to the computer but when you turn it on you get the No Video Message. ;)
