Leadtek GeForce 2 MX400 64MB Refuses to display red

[Daniel Mountford]

I have just upgraded by video card to Leadtek GeForce 2 MX400. It runs and
the system boots up fine but it flatly refuses to display red. Has anyone
else had the same problem, or does anyone know what the problem could be?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

System Specs are as follows

P4 1.3ghz
128MB RDRAM in 2 x 64MB RIMMS
Leadtek GeForce 2 MX400
Quantum fireball 40GB
Motherboard is a packard bell evergreen based upon the intel i850 Chipset
Built in Yamaha sound chipset
Pioneer 16 x DVD 40 x CD

It looks broken.
But double check if its not the monitor or the cable connection

Check monitor cable and connectors. Apparently the R of RGB doesn't make
it's way from the graphics card to the monitor. The worst case would be the
video outlet is not properly mounted on the videocard (R not connected).

Yeah the monitor cable was broke. Got me a new one and it works fine :)
