		<description><![CDATA[Hi Naveed.

It&#039;s possible but can be other components.

How was the RAM checked? Swap tested with known good RAM?

Graphics on-board or separate card? If the latter try a new card.

If the motherboard is a few years old check for raised/leaking caps as in this article.

Reset/clear CMOS - remove battery/check jumper.

Remove any peripheral cards and all connections to the motherboard including hard drive/USB/keyboard then try boot.
 
Reseat the CPU - apply new thermal paste.

Has the PSU been tested?

Try in this order - easy fixes first.

Good luck.

		<description><![CDATA[I was using my PC when it suddenly hanged, than I restarted my PC and thereafter I don&#039;t see any display. The monitor is OK; I have checked it with my laptop.

When I power on my computer, I don&#039;t see anything on the screen; even my computer doesn&#039;t load the BIOS setup. But there is a flash on the screen as a flash occurs before the display appears. I removed / replaced RAM and checked it, but it is not working. The lights of the CPU are coming on when I power it on, fans are working but there is no display.

Is this problem related to the motherboard or the graphics display card or anything else?]]></description>
