    faulty gfx card

    Hi
    I've got a Geforce 8800 GTS G92 which doesn't want to output anything on monitor, PC won't POST, i got one long beep and 3 short and fan is spinning at 100% . My first thought was at GPU BGAs, knowing these card have problems there due to overheating stress in time. Reballed the chip, all looks perfect but the issues remains, same as before. Redone all solder joints at power supply part (capacitors, inductors,etc), but the same again
    Has anyone any ideea what could be?

    Best regards

    yeah looks like a problem

    that beep code

    1 long, 3 short Conventional/Extended memory failure
    can also mean ram in pc

    usually case of:
    ram failure or the motherboard is unable to access the ram.

    take out your ram check them one at a time.
    to see if it boots

    reset your bios
    you also might have up your voltages and timings on ram
    when you are able to get in bios

      Thanks for advice, i tried with another gfx card and the pc boots perfectly. RAM was checked with memtest86, no errors. I'm gonna check supply voltage to the GPU, maybe one vreg is faulty
