Reply: (edit)A 100mhz 486? the computer that the video card does work on, is it a similar vintage? the 486 may not be compatible with the video card. The beep codes, what do they do with the card removed? post back

Reply: (edit)I put it into another case. Ever since it hasn't worked. The reason why I put it in another case is because my nephew was here. He was using the front part as a kicking side, He was only 2 at the time. Then I came in telling him not to do it anymore. then CRACK!!!, off all 4 screw holders. So, I tried removing the video card, same thing. I am going to try reseting the BIOS. If I can find the jumper and a manual

Reply: (edit)- I put it into another case. You mean the motherboard video card etc? does the MB POST? check to make sure nothing is shorted out on the bottom of the MB.
