Hi everyone, I have a Gigabyte 6VX7B-4X motherboard that is no longer posting. It gives 8 beeps when powered on. This code means video read/write error. It does this with or without a video card present. At first it only did this when an AGP video card was installed, PCI worked fine. I tried 3 know good AGP video cards and none work in this board. Now it gives 8 beeps at post regardless of there being a video card present or not. I have checked the voltages from the power supply to be sure, and they are all within tolerance. Power supply is tested and known good. This board has BIOS date of 2000, which lands it in the capacitor plague time period. No capacitors are visibly leaking or vented/bulging. I put this board away years ago and it was working fine, took it back out the other day and it stopped working. It has worked with PCI video cards intermittently. I have checked for bad solder joints as well with a jewelers loupe. Does anyone have any past experience with these boards? Any suggestions or advice?

by vallllliiiiHi, last month i bought a broken pc that i tought i can fix for myself but it turned out to be time consuming. The pc turn on and shows no display and beeps 5 times and restarts again and again, i think it s the motherboard because i tested/replaced all the parts except the motherboard. The pc was used mostly for light gaming and i think it wasnt overclocked or something. I tried all the basic fixes(cleaning the ram slots, removing the cmos battery, reseat the GPU/CPU/RAM). I think the last thing to do is to replace or repair the mobo but i prefer to try to repair because i don t want to spent...

by gcrezzThe issue with this video card is the HDMI port. Specifically on pin 19 (Diode checks on all other pins are normal). When i do a diode check on it from the pin on the board itself, I have nothing. There is also no short on the pin. Resistance reads about 200k. Normally on any HDMI pin 19 I would expect some voltage drop anywhere from .5v to 1.2v but here, I have nothing. The card is operational and can be used via the displayPort ports, but not through the HDMI. Attached you will find the pdf schematics for the card on page 22. I have verified that all of the resistors on this line before the...07-25-2024, 09:49 AM

by sam_sam_samThis is from my son’s gaming computer that at first had minor overheating issues when playing a very intense game with it causing the computer to crash or reboot
Then bough a new motherboard and a new computer case that a cooling system in it already installed also brought the cooling system for this video card but now the issue with it is that it randomly rebooted screen goes blank randomly and suddenly video freezing or started with video being there then blank screen and then the video comes back or it just stays blank for a while and then maybe it will come back but it... - Loading...
