    one led stays lit on sli-dr

    a week ago i had a condensation problem with my phase unit. the pc wouldnt boot and i saw that the video card was wet. i guess the water dripped from the cpu and fell on the card. so i let everything dry for a week and redid the phase unit and made sure it was air tight. when i turn the pc on the motherboard keeps the first led lit and beeps. i dont get anything on the screen so im thinking the the videocard is gone. is that what the first led being lit means?

    Here is the way to read the Diagnostic LEDs.

    4 LEDs on = Power applied, checking CPU
    3 LEDs on = CPU has been detected OK, checking RAM
    2 LEDs on = RAM has been detected OK, checking VGA
    1 LED on = VGA has been detected OK, entering BIOS
    0 LEDs on = System has booted to the Operating System.
    so it means that ur bios is the cause of the problem

    try resetting the cmos
