Phil, I guess that you are posting from the UK (GMT?) so you should be able
to pick up a replacement PSU from PC World or Maplin, etc., - or even your
local PC shop!

And, as you are using an AGP Card, I would also guess that your PC has an
ATX PSU - be sure to look at the label on the PSU itself, (or user manual)
it will give you the info. that you need. Maybe increase the size (wattage)
by one notch, from your existing one. (If your PC is 'quite old' then it may
have an AT PSU.)

e.g.
http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/sto...amp=3310220935
or
http://www.maplin.co.uk/Search.aspx?...3m11&source=15

Take your old PSU with you, if you decide to visit in person - and hope you
get an assistant who knows their job g - get a direct 'type' replacement
(It's VERY unlikely that you will get an absolute (Manufacturer)
replacement.

N.B - Be sure to make copious notes of the connector positions as you remove
the old PSU.

BTW - There's no guarantee that the PSU is the problem - only substitution
will confirm.

Mart,

Thanks - any Idea what PSU would fit the bill and where to purchase in the
UK or US?

Odd, that you were able to re-install WinMe without any 'apparent' video
signal/monitor issues during the installation.

Possibly a failing PSU - may not be able to handle the extra power
requirement of the wireless card (and symptoms are not un-typical of a
failing PSU.) Try substituting/replacing with a higher power PSU.

I recently installed a wireless card in my IBM Netvista (2271) PC all
went well. About ten days latter the machine starts up but no signal to
the monitor. After about an hour or so the system appears to have
re-booted and the monitor comes into life?

So I took out the wireless card and reinstalled (clean) windows ME. The
symptoms are the same?

Do you think this is the graphics card or could I have a bigger problem?
