Troubleshooting Video Problems

Solution
Check that the computer and monitor are turned
on. (The power light should be illuminated.)
Check the monitor's contrast and brightness
settings.
Make sure that all cables and power cords are
plugged in.
Make sure the power outlet is working.
If possible, try another monitor and set of cables.
Check the LCD screen of your PC Workstation. If
the LCD screen reports 'Error - No Video', check
that the AccelGALAXY board is correctly inserted
into the AGP slot.
If the LCD screen reports any other error
message, refer to the User's Guide that came
with your PC Workstation.
AccelGALAXY Graphics Board Configuration and Troubleshooting Guide
Useful routine checks, especially if you have just
moved the computer or the monitor.
At boot time, the monitor's signal is provided by
the built-in VGA subsystem of your
AccelGALAXY. MaxiLife can check if the VGA
subsystem is running properly. If there is a
problem it reports 'Error - No Video'.
