Any Luck Yet?
Any luck yet on figuring out your problem? I have the same issue with an ASUS P4S800-DX with a Sapphire Radeon 9800 Pro, 2GB of OCZ premier, a P4 2.6c, etc.. Can't get the video up or to come back after shutting down. It worked fine for two days and then no video on startup. Nothing. I tested with two other AGP cards that were working when pulled (old 16mb and 32mb), replaced the mobo twice (got it to work for two hours with one of the new boards and then couldn't get anything after I shut it down). The latest one arrived today with the same results). I tried it with a new PCI card as well with no results (at least you're getting some results at times) and am ready to pull my hair out. The only thing I've not replaced is the CPU so maybe that is the culprit. I thought it might be the memory as well and talked to the OCZ tech support people (1st time and boy were they helpful). I tried it with one stick and then a different one and once without anything. Nothing but the "Monitor is working, check the signal cable" message. I even tried a different monitor as well. The OCZ person mentioned that it could be the voltage setting (I can't get anything so I can't check that - a real catch-22), or the power supply but I just put in a new 500 watt so that doesn't appear to be the problem. Good luck and post a message if you find an answer. I will as well.
