My hp pavilion elite m9500y has no video
My hp pavilion elite m9500y has no video I tried to boot it up you can hear the fans and everything but there is no video. I think it is the cpu or the gpu
Is this a good question?

Disconnect power from the PC and hold the PC power button operated for a full 30 seconds then release .
reconnect power and try starting
If OK check the coin cell battery on the motherboard is OK i.e. >2.5V
if not replace it

Hi @superfixer334,
Have you tried another monitor, video cable etc?
Is the HDD activity light working?
Most likely it is the GPU card although if it failed they may have been a beep error code on POST.

Can't find the manual so I don't know if there's supposed to be a single beep for a successful POST or not.
If not and there's no HP logo on startup it may not even be starting -motherboard?
If the HDD light flashes indicating it is booting into Windows then it's the GPU card. You could try starting in "safe mode" to check if it s a driver problem
