Finally got my home pc back with the new motherboard. Hook everything up and restart it.

When it first boots up you see all the script stuff etc, then the light is green on the monitor.

Then you get the Windows XP logo yada yada yada..then I get the no signal and then the light is orange.

I can hear the windows sound effects it's back on but can't see squat.

What in the wide world of sports is going on? thanks in advance

Variety of things it could be, graphics drivers, graphics card, couple of issues with the processor it could be that the proc heatsink isn't seated right or the processor could be overheating that was my issue a few months ago with my fiance's computer. Definitely see if you can update drivers first before you replace any hardware.

Sounds like a communication problem with the monitor and newly installed motherboard. I would agree with the others, update the drivers for the monitor and see if that works. I would also check all cables and make sure there are no loose connections or bad wires.

The display is adjusting to a resolution or frequency that is not supported.

Boot into safe mode and see if it works.

Cold bev of your choice and location if this works

I'd simply call whoever replaced the motherboard. They're supposed to have it working, including having the right drivers and BIOS settings, and it's not. They have to have booted it to be sure it did come up as it should before returning it to you.

But if you don't feel like doing that ......

Boot into the BIOS settings and check the video setting. It could be that your new board doesn't have the onboard video but the BIOS defaulted back to that setting if your original board did. Or your new board does have video onboard and you can try setting the BIOS for that, move your connection, and see if it boots okay to fix the graphics card. You'll be able to see the BIOS settings if you can see the boot up script.

Still, I'd call the tech that replaced the board first.

      Canales is holding us back

      I don't think Dave touches the defense. That might be a mark against him but definitely a huge red flag for evero. He refuses to run anything other than soft zone and when you don't get pressure that's an awful scheme

      You don't have to convince me. I think not picking up the option should absolutely be firmly on the table but I just do not see Tepper and Morgan doing that for previously stated reasons. Therefore I'm not going to bother entertaining the notion. Just hoping we actually get real viable competition. If that doesn't happen at the minimum then my perception of that is complete and utter professional malpractice.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Bama Panther · Posted

      It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”
