[brlug-general] Can't boot computer?

Guys, I'm looking for some guidance with a computer I have.

It powers on, doesn't give any POST beeps or errors that I can tell, but
the problem is that when I try to use the onboard video card i get the
message on my
monitor "out of sync". I took the memory out and then got some POST errors.
So the
motherboard seems to work. I took the BIOS battery out to reset something,
but still
getting the out of sync message. The monitor seems to get a signal from the
board, but
I don't get any display at all, no BIOS no Windows. I tried two different
video cards,
one was PCI the other was AGP. When I use those I don't get any signal at
all. I guess
there must be an option in the BIOS to switch between on board or a card,
but since
I can't get into the BIOS then I can't change anything.

Any suggestions for my plight?

Thanks
bb
