Flexatxstc Bro Essential 700C
I am helping a friend with their Flexatxstc Bro Essential 700C. The unit
powers on and stays on but the monitor led light will come on and immediately powers off. The monitor works fine on another unit. Any suggestion? Thanks |

It is powering off because it isn't receiving a video signal. I'm not
familiar enough with the unit to suggest whether it is a problem with a video card (which can be replaced) or integrated video which cannot. If it is a video card in a PCI slot, try reseating it.

Flexatxstc Bro Essential 700C
Thanks, the video card in integrated. I thought maybe I could disable the
integrated video card and install on in a PCI slot. Is this possible? "Mortimer" wrote in message ... It is powering off because it isn't receiving a video signal.

Those boards commonly have bad capacitors. Check for bulging or leaking
electrolytic caps on the motherboard. You can get a replacement board he http://www.pcpartsohio.com/gateway_d...spx?item_id=73 "Sunshine" wrote in message et...

If you do replace the motherboard there are two differrent versions. On with
a parallel port and one without. The place I linked to has both. "Sunshine" wrote in message et... I am helping a friend with their Flexatxstc Bro Essential 700C.
