Hey everyone,
Thanks for all the help! Here is what I have tried so far: I tried the quick turn on, turn off trick, but nothing new happened. I then set my monitor to the 640X480 at 66 Hz setting, when I plugged the mac into the monitor, the monitor displayed a message saying: Auto Config. Then the same thing happened, the screen turned black, but then when I unplugged the mac the monitor displayed a message saying: no input.
I know this is a stupid question! But on a PC you don't need to have the keyboard and mouse plugged in, in order to see if it will boot up. I was assuming the same principle with the mac LC. Am I correct in assuming this? Do you need to have the keyboard and mouse plugged in, in order to have it boot up correctly?
Do you guys think there may be a problem with the VRAM or just the "normal" RAM?
I used to have a DB15 to VGA adaptor (the cheap kind where it doesn't have any pins selections) and it worked fine with a previous mac I had. I'm thinking it might be worth a shot to get another DB15-VGA adaptor? I found this on ebay and it has not settings like my previous one here is the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/271123155495?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
What do you guys? Think this is worth a shot, or am I just beginning to be too desperate!
Thanks again for all of your help! Any advice would be very much appreciated!
