Very odd

As I went to plug in my computer from a routine cleanup, I forgot to plug in
my power supply connector from the outside and realized this.

So as I went to plug it in and boot up, I encountered no video. Everything
inside (all fans) responded as normal, but I got no video.

I stripped all components down and plug one by one and got things going
again.

Just curious if anyone knows why this happened.

Thanks

Often when you take the cover off and play around inside the AGP card
gets mis-seated.
