Yoz! Where is brother Palmer when he's needed

 

Well, you've pretty much summed up everything that you did, including plucking everything out from your PC.

To tell you the truth, I'm suspecting your graphics card to be the problem even if you've said you swapped it out for another one(??)

 

Was it seated in properly? Also, you have to be careful as newer PCs have what's called PCIe (PCI express), but older PCs do not.

In short, find out what computer expansion card standard your graphics card is (PCI? PCie? AGV?) and ensure that it can be used on your PCs.

hmmm...the thing is i borrowed all my stuff frommy workplace's PC and one is running on a newer motherboard than the other....could it mean that the PSU that its supplying is different voltage? or RAM different types? It managed to fit well even for the graphics card...

 

Is there a chance that the motherboard is faulty even if it has beeping sounds? (juz curious)

 

Thanks redbeacon!!

Check the RAM and graphics card.

 

10 such cases I've ever attended (no display on LCD but it works fine on other PCs). Its often the card or the RAM wasn't seated properly. Not enuff for the BIOS to detect as a hardware failure but enough that the PC cannot start properly.
