recently had a new powerlogix upgrade put into a cube.

works beautifully, but noticed when i later went to connect an ADC monitor that that port seems dead. machine does not recognize that port and the monitor (and its USB ports) gets no power.

vga port works but adc is dead.

card is a radeon OEM, so probably hard to come by,

is the card damaged? is there anything I can try to see if it can work again?

thanks!

Sounds like one of the power connectors did not get fully reseated during the reassembly after installing the new CPU. Lack of power on the ADC port would prevent an ADC monitor from coming up.

A VGA monitor connected via adapter to the ADC port would work fine, assuming that only the power supply is missing. The same would presumably be true for a DVI monitor connected via adapter.
