Black Screen...

Hello.
Yestarday i upgraded my motherboard and processor. I am having a problem with my graphics card. It works fine until i load a game. I have sound but no display, just a black screen. I have tryed uninstalling the graphics drivers and installing the latest ones, also i have tryed with the drivers that came with the graphics card (graphics card is not new). Does anyone know why this could be ? I have tryed with two identical graphics cards and still the same problem. And yes it is compatible.

Here is what i upgraded to. Asus A8V-X Motherboard and a AMD 64 3500+.

Please help if you can.

Thank you.

 

are you sure your graphics card can handle the game your running?

 

Yes i am, it played fine with the old motherboard and processor. So if anything it should run better now....

Someone please help. This is really annoying.

 

sorry, cant help you
but try to find faqs at the internet and on the websites of ur proccesor, graphics card and motherboard

 

Have tryed for 2 days now.... nothing helpfull :-(

 

Err, strange, it could be a problem with the RAM maybe?

 

wht i would do is go to start>run>regedit!

then there will be user logs and other stuff check in all tht.....i guess! :unsure:

 

It is really starting to piss me off the say the least.... if anyone has a solution. Please let me know

 

Anyone know a good technical forum or something that i could post this problem ?

 

Have you tried it with more than one game or just one?

 

More than one. Guild Wars, Call Of Duty 2, Ground Controll.

None are working :-(

With Tiger Woods 2005 it partly loads no text but i get the basic interface and the curser. Also with GW i get the curser but nothing else.

With Call Of Duty 2 and Tiger Woods, it also plays the intro for the games, but nothing happens after that...

 

what card are u using are u sure its the right speed? is the moniter able to be played on ur card? wat is ur cards max res.? what is ur ingame res.?

 

maybe something wrong with your mobo?

 

Nvidia 256MB GeForce FX 5700LE - AGP graphics card. Yes the moniter is able to be played on the card, because i used the graphics card for months with the old Motherboard and cpu. Not sure cards max resoultion but it can run at 1024x768 fine, the games resolution can be changed, but to do that you have to be able tto see the interface.

I have tryed setting my computer to the lowest resolution changing the colour to 16bit and lowering the hardware acceleration a little, still no sucess.

I have also tryed loading the game in safe mode but no difference.
