Arg... well we got a problem.

In the past, I had an issue where I had to force start the computer. Then the issue grew to start reseating the ram. Now, regardless what I do, re-seating the ram the machine boots, CPU fan, power supply, but no signal on the LCD.

At one point, I had video... But then it started to flicker and after a few mins it flickered some more and went out and never came back.

- Yellow light on prisim card flickers.
- I re-seated the ram.
- Re-seated the prisim card
- Tried putting the prisim card in the second pci slot.
- Removed the prisim card and booted the machine via a monitor.
*Disk boot error, please insert disk and press enter.

Game runs, but no monitor "No signal"

Questions:

- Cant be bad ram since I can play the game, just cant see anything.
- Could my converter be the issue, maybe it died?
- Any way I can test to see if it is the converter?
- I have the Nucore image, has anyone installed it before?

Tried another monitor cable?

How about the ribbon cable thing that goes to the backpanel connector?
