Re: No display
^^if u use a video card, remove it & reseat it in the gfx slot.........
make sure all cables are tight, no pci component has come loose......
If u use onboard, check whether the monitor cable is fixed properly, otherwise call a technician

Re: No display
^^have u tried to remove and reinset ur 7600GS in the gfx slot???
usually, 1 long beep & two short beeps indicate a video problem
continuous beeping --- memory problem

Re: No display
Remove your grafix card try connectin to onboard mobo graphics slot..If ur sys runs, its time to run after warranty and stuff...u cud also try cleanin the graphics card pins with a pencil eraser....worked for me the last time smthin similar happened...Try the same with your ram too...

Re: No display
@tech_mastermind
How could be it??Even ive finished the game on my older PC as well as the new one nd almost all my friends has done the same with those pirated. How its gonna affect the h/w nyway????
Maybe some s/w can make windows hang up like the riva tuner or CBID nd all. But no way any s/w could make PC make long beeps at post check.

Re: No display
@tech_mastermind
hl2 causes problems when one tries to use an unsupported gfx card like TNT2, 845, 865 etc.....
but that does not make the system unbootable....
