Question Nothing on screen...?


Okay, its on board video, so when I plug in the monitor everything seems fine, but when I boot up, the monitor goes into sleep mode. Tried this with two different monitors, so the monitor isn't the problem, it has to be the monitor port on the motherboard. But why and what would cause this?
I guess the next point is to just slap in pci graphics card right? It is an old machine, but it belongs to my mother in law and she doesnt want to spend money on an upgrade, thats why it would have to be a PCI graphics card as there is no port for a graphics card.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
