Client’s tower seems to boot to BIOS but does not continue to Win 7 OS. Long continuous “beep”. Nothing shows now on screen, was showing BIOS but not now. Screen notice say “No signal”. Graphics adapter built on MB and only one open exp. slot and that is for PCI Express mini card. Any thoughts? I’m thinking MB graphics is dead. Client say it just quit displaying a few days ago after being shut down for the weekend. Screen is known good one in my shop.

I did a search for the motherboard used in the Gateway DX4860 & the one I found has one PCIe x16 slot & three PCIe x1 slots. If that’s correct & you’re saying there’s only one slot available, what’s in the other slots? Try removing & reseating the RAM & any cards that are installed. Pop them in & out of their slots a few times to insure good contact.
