We'll just to give you some ideas to look at.
Things I'd check. Not in any order.
1. Plug the video card that doesn't seem to work into another system and
see
if the card works. It might be a dead card.
Did that. Works fine in other machines.
2. Check Ati and make sure you have the correct drivers.
(http://support.ati.com/products/pc/rageltpro/rageltpro_drivers.html)
Plug
and Play will not always install the correct driver.
Did that. Everything is as it should be.
3. I'd also check to make sure that the bios is the latest version.
Find
the Make/Model of the motherboard and head over to their site. Look for
any
bios updates for that motherboard. If there is something messed with
bios
this will set everything back to the defaults.
Not looking forward to taking that machine apart AGAIN!
4. Make sure you're not booting into safe mode. :)
Don't be silly.
5. Look for bent pins on the monitor cable.
Monitor works fine on other machines. Not a cable problem.
6. Take a vacation and let somebody else worry about it (SEP). ;)
I wish.
