T
roubleshooting the Video
Subsystem
Troubleshooting video problems involves determining
which of the following is the source of the problem: the
monitor, the monitor interface cable, the video memory,
or the video logic of the computer. You can also have a
high-resolution video expansion card installed, which
overrides the video logic of the computer.
The following procedure troubleshoots problems with the
video memory and video logic only. Before you begin,
perform the procedure found in “Troubleshooting the
Monitor” in Chapter 5 to determine whether or not the
monitor is the source of the problem.
CAUTION: See “Protecting Against Electro-
static Discharge” in the safety instructions at
the front of this guide.
