Ok, its a long story, so ill divide this up into sections

How the problem came to be:(Might not be so important to read)
I was sitting at my computer desk, which isn't very sturdy i must say. And i accidentally knocked my keyboard and the tray off its tracks. The keyboard fell down, onto my computer, which sits underneath it. The keyboard fell on to top, where a DVD drive and the power supply are, which makes me wonder why it seems to be the video card (why i think so, is stated below). The keyboard then fell to the left of the computer (the side where the motherboard does not lie). After the huge disaster, the keyboard and its tray were mounted diagonally from the floor to the top left corner of my tower. My computer froze.

What happens when i boot it up:
When I turn my computer on, it starts to make all the usual booting sounds, but after about five seconds, it beeps. I get no signal to my monitor whatsoever. I told a friend of mine about this problem, and he said that the beeps actually meant something. So I decided to do a search on google.

What I found out:
I found this site, and found the error I had on it.
http://www.amptron.com/html/bios.beepcodes.html

My Beep Code:
1 Long, 2 Short | Video adapter failure | Bad video adapter

What I tried:
Well, I’m no expert, I just took out my video card, cleaned it, and plugged it back in, making sure it was in right.

Conclusion
I don't really understand why it would be a problem with my video card, yet none the less, my monitor receives no signal and the beep says something is wrong with the video card. The blow that my computer faced was on the top, nowhere near the video card, but none the less, I guess it could have felt the blow, it fell down pretty hard. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the real problem might be? Is there anything I should check for? Any solutions? Thank you in advance, I appreciate any help offered.

The first thing I'd do is procure a known good video card, pop it in and see if that works. Make sure the card is seated properly.

Ok, Ill get back to you, once i can get my hands on a card, Ill just as some friends.

A couple of times when i would work on my computer I would get some beeps and I would check the RAM cause If there not in good enough on my computer it would do what you decribed. I just though maybe the little crash might have knocked the RAM loose

1. check the video connection between video card and monitor which locate behind the system unit(or commonly known as "cpu"), it could be loosen due to that incident.

reboot and see if it's ok.

2. if you're confident enough, unscrew the side panel of the system case. touch the grey metal area. next, try pushing the video card downard with little force so as to ensure it is firmly sitted on the agp slot. (if not, ask a friend who knows hardware well to do it for you.)

note : the above should only be done with power switch off and unplug from wall socket.

You can check to make sure the 15 pin connector from the video card to the monitor is seated properly, but in my experience, even if this is the case, during POST you wouldn't get the beeps, you'd just have no signal to your monitor. The beeps are signalling that the PC isn't liking something.

Ok, I called up my friend, and he let me borrow his extra video card. I took out mine, and put the new one in. It works, comp booted up, everythings fine. The only thing is, this video card uses a PCI slot, instead of AGP. That wouldn't matter would it? Anyways, I assume somethings wrong with my video card, should I bring it to a store or something? I checked it for blown resistors, but I didn't quite know what to look for, I always thought resistors lay horizontally on the board, mine has all these cilinders that go up, vertically? Are they resistors? They all look good, Im not sure that the problem is. Maybe I should try my video card on a different computer, and see if it will work.

BTW, I allready checked for ram and made sure the video card was inserted properly, one of the first things i did. I'm using the computer right now ^_^. I just wish i could get my video card working, this one isn't very good. This might give me an excuse to buy a new one.

Take your video card (the one that isn't working) and try to put it in another computer, if it works, then I'd say your AGP slot is damaged. The fact that a PCI card works while an AGP one won't rather indicates that something is not jiving properly with the AGP slot.

You really never know exactly what a hard hit taken by a computer will do to it. There are just too many sensitive parts that can be easily damaged.
