No Display/Stuck During Startup

[Omis]

Hi all!

Hope you can help me with this one.

My problem is kind of weird (for me I guess). Recently I just disassembled my VC to clean some dust off and when I put it back in, there is no display.

What's happening is as follows:

When I have my video card in, there is no display. But I can hear that the windows start up did go through.

Now...

When I try to remove my video card to use my on board gpu, it doesn't go through start up. It always get stuck in "Starting windows" screen. It does go through to safe mode though.

System:
CPU: AMD II x4 635
MOBO: Gigabyte 880GMA-ud2h
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws CL9 (9-9-24) ddr3 1600
PSU: XDX PRO650w
HDD: 500GB WD 7200rpm

Regards,
Omis

remove all of your ram sticks for a few seconds then clean the ram slots with air (sorry for mistake in grammer) then put all ram sticks back into their slots i hope it helps you

Did clean it. Still the same.

Try booting with one DIMM.

I'm not really familiar with DIMM. Does that mean try using one of my RAMs? If it is, I already did and same result.

What I actually want is to use the VC I have. I only tried to boot using the onboard video just to know where could be the problem.

Just an update...

I was able to access BIOS earlier without my VC.

 

[Omis]

Okay, did that. Still the same, no display when VC is inserted.

What I also did is I entered safe mode and cleaned my GPU driver. Now it boots to windows WITHOUT the VC, but still no display when VC is used. Everything seems good without the VC. Does this mean there is a problem with it?

650w of PSU is already more than enough I believe for a single 6850. Anyway, I would go over to a friends house to check the parts I have on his computer. Thanks for the help anonymous1 and to all those who replied! Cheers!
