I am having a problem, which I believe has something to do with my video card. When I go to boot up my computer, I hear 4 beeps, with nothing appearing on my monitor. The computer sounds normal(fans running, lights on inside) but nothing shows up on my monitor. Any ideas on how to fix?

i wouldnt assume that first

try pulling out everything you can (maybe all but one stick of ram, disconnect hard drives, etc) and try it then. also re-seat the stick of ram you leave in there and try it in different slots, etc. i wouldnt assume video card just bc it won't come on. it can be a sign of just about anything being messed up

If you posted what kind of computer/motherboard you had maybe someone could look up the beep code for you.

^ftw. beep codes are essential. it's your motherboard complaining to you in beeptalk.
