Thanks for the suggestions, I suspect a monitor related issue. I just put in a Linux boot disk (FL-Digi) and I do not even get a signal to the monitor, nothing displayed at all, same when i try to boot the HD with Windows XP. . The video is on the motherboard so there is no video CARD to reseat. I'm going to switch video cables and see if it is a cable issue.
