Suggestions Pls

[sysfilez]

I had a Asus A8N-E mobo after few months of perfect working it showed up video controller problem and there was no display, it was replaced by Rashi peripherals and i got a M2N-E well in tat case i had to change the CPU and RAM. now last night i had the same problem with M2N-E that is video controller problem, there was no display. Its giving the display beep codes. I use a PCI-E graphic card XFX 7600GS.
I was wondering how is this possible that both the boards have same problem. Anyway the warrant got expired few months ago, now i am left with two options
1. buy a new mobo
2. take this mobo to service center and get it replaced/repaired if they are convinced.

Anyway I have this AMD 64 X2 processor, pls suggest a good mobo. and possibly not ASUS.

what's your PSU? Explain the issue in little bit more detail.
New Mobo: Biostar TA790GXBE or TA785GE

One long beep followed by three short beep. There is no display.
Wen i had A8N-E i had the same problem after few months of usage then rashi changed the mobo saying video controller problem and i got M2N-E now after a yr same problem. Last evening wen i switched on the pc the video controller was uninstalled , then automatically win xp detected new hardware and re installed the vid controller, i restarted the pc after installation n it was working fine. At night wen i switched it on again this problem started. Previously i had this problem but then i used to take out the PCI E card and reinstall it and it used to work fine. Now it refuses.
My rig config
Asus M2N-E mobo
AMD 64 X2 4000+
Corsair XMS dual channel 1gbx2 Ram 800mhz

pls suggest a budget mobo which is good.

I think this is your problem! Read the second reply:

After a few readings here and there. I found that the problem is not with your motherboard. Its your GPU. Try booting the PC without your GPU. I think its dying or is already dead!

Motherboard already mentioned. 790 is 4k. 785 is 3.5k.

Yes u might be right abt the GPU. last evening i fitted the graphic card in a friends computer and that PC didnt boot. It didnt even boot with the onboard grahpics that my friend had. I guess its the graphic card that has gone kaput. anyway in half an hour time i will fit it in another machine and chek whether the GPU has really gone.
Thanks for helping.
Any suggestion on a new PCI E Graphic card (budget one)

[hell_storm2006]

How much do you plan on spending?

[harsha0498]

easiest troubleshooting may be,upgrading the graphics card may solve the problem.or else visit a technician for a specific fix.

For Graphic Card,check prices of nvidia 9500/9600/9800/ATI 4850/4870(arranged according to prices from low to high)

Well i hardly play games these days, so no need for high end one. 80% of the time i am working on Photoshop CS3/4, rest 20% watching movies, etc. My budget is around 2300/-. My mobo is Asus M2NE.

[hell_storm2006]

Could you please mention you full config including your model and brand name, including PSU.

For now just know that Rs. 2300 isn't a good budget for a GPU. 9500GT DDR3 version is the best low end card you can get and that's around 3.5k.

My pc worked perfectly last evening, hope it continues to do so. will test it few more days and then may be i will buy a new graphic card. My budget is 2300/- inclusive 4%vat. Pls suggest a card.

Get some cheap card like 8400GS or 9400GS.

[hell_storm2006]

Are you planning to upgrade in the near future? If so don't invest on a GPU now. Get a full config with a decent PSU when you upgrade.

Also you could get Palit 9400GT Super at 2.5k. But its DDR2! Which is outdated.
