I'm having serious trouble with my new connect3d radeon x850 pro. After installing the card and booting up my computer, my monitor
(Samsung SyncMaster 710T) gets no signal from the card, it just stays black. During startup I can see the "Analog" - "Digital" sign flashing in the corner of the monitor while the monitor is searching for the right signal from the card, but after about 10 seconds it just stops and turns completely black. I took the card back to the shop where I bought it for a mainentance check, but it worked 100 % fine on their test machine.
 
Personally I think it's a matter of compatibility problems with my motherboard (AsRock K7VT4A+). I updated my BIOS (1.20 -> 1.30) hoping that it would solve the problem, but no sugar.
 
Please share any ideas you might have, because the only thing I can come up with anymore is to buy a new motherboard, and spending money is never a good thing, at least for me Any help will be really appreciated!

Ok ya I have the same problem as you guys. I have a p4s800d-e Deluxe Motherboard with 3ghz, 2gb ram,1 harddrive, 1dvd,1cd with a 400watt Power Supply.
 
I'm thinking the power supply isn't good for my X800 256 DDR3 AGP 8X. I think I need more juice so I bought a 600w and will let you know if it works.
 
I know its not the card because it was tested on 2 other pcs with no problems but for some reason my monitor does not want to kick in. I also pulled all the power wires connecting to any other hardware on my pc that does not need to boot (fans,cd,dvd) still nothing. Hopefully this 600w will solve my problem, because I don't want to go Nvidia.
 
 
OH, and no it is not my agp slot because i'm running my ATI 9800 AIW pro 128 right now.
