Hiya all technicians,

I have got a problem when connecting VGA connector to
the VGA port, it appears 1 long beep and 8 short beeps.
According to some information I have found during my research,
1 long beep and 8 short beeps is related to display problem.
I cant see anything at all.

This problem can be resolved? if yes , can someone help me?

Thanks in advance

Double check what it means in your motherboard manual, under POST.

Sometimes the code varies from board to board, or manufacturer to manufacturer.

It does sound like you have a graphics card problem.
Is this happening at boot up or when you plug in a monitor ?
Is this a new card ?
Does the card have DVI out as well as VGA ?

Yup, I checked it, it says "Display/Video card problem"

Either a poor connection, or a screwed up video circuit then I'm afraid.

Sounds like a new mobo is in order.

EDIT:

Either that or adding in a card.

Yeah, shoving in a old PCI card off eBay should be cheaper if that's the only problem.

Dependant on your BOIS, the beeps can be interrupted differently, allowing us to understand the error we would need your BOIS manufacturer?
