Hello All,

I just built this computer and hdmi works fine on the mobo side. Switching over to the 6950 I cant even get the boot screen up nothing changes on the screen its just blake. I went on the ATI website got the most updated drivers and installed them still nothing. Any ideas what could be causing this problem?

^^ what he said

Also try another video card just in case

Yes there is power going into it. The fan is on and running.

Go into the BIOS and make sure that the card is selected as the primary device and disable the onboard video.

Thank you all for responding but, the problem was solved due to wiring popping out and it is now securely plugged in. Thank you all again !
