does the computer start up in safe mode. if thats the case he might have deleted a folder that contains your video drivers.
 
Can you see the bios or the boot up? If you can't see that then its not a driver or windows problem. I would trying 2 things. Reseat the video card and if its pci try it in a different slot, and/or try another psu. if you can't see the bios thats not a windows driver thing, Its a card/slot/power thing...
 
No, i cant see the bios boot up

Yes, my moniter is plugged in

No, my computer doesnt start up in safe mode. when i turn my comptuer on my moniter desont even respond.

I dont think anything is wrong w/ the psu because i never opened my computer b4

I lost my windows 98 disc like 5 years ago
 
Sounds like one of three things to me.

1) a Bad PSU
2) bad slot
3) bad card


I have reason to beleave that it's one of those three things. Happy computing :)
 
open up your computer and try reseating the video card. i am guessing either a monitor or video card problem as of right now.
