Problem with MCE Machine - Video Card?

Hi all,

Turned on my MCE machine today and nothing displays on either the TV
or projector. 8 beeps from the motherboard (Intel D915GAV), which,
according to their website indicates:

You are getting 8 beeps indicating display memory read/write failure
Make sure that you have a video card on your system.
If possible, swap the memory on the video card.
Swap the video card.
Swap the motherboard.

If I remove the video card I get no beeps (including the usual single
beep on system startup). As the card is a Gigabyte PCX card and none
of my other PC's have a PCX slot I don't have any way of confirming
it is faulty.

Can anyone confirm or shed some light as to what may have gone wrong?

TIA
Darren
