Need computer advice....there was a blackout last wednesday.

ever since the power went back on, I turn the computer on and the lights go on but the monitor doesn't display anything.

I'm sure it isn't the monitor because I can plug the monitor into another comptuer and it works.

I think that the computer isn't booting up correctly....the green light on the power button lights up, and I hear noises but I don't think the noisy fan is going on....when I push buttons on the keyboard then it makes some noises.

Oh yeah, computer is a dell that is about 4 years old.

Busted motherboard? Am I f'ing retarded and missing something?

The video card could have become partially unseated too... it's worth checking out.

Moot point though if the computer has an integrated video card.
