No Video signal after a BSOD?

Hi all, i had a Blue screen of death about a fortnight after upgrading my graphics card and doing a full XP reinstall. This BSOD was weird coz it actually errored itself, all i had was just the bluescreen with 2 lines of text and gray bars running downwards all across the screen the rest of the screen had no text at all.

I rebooted the PC and my monitor just said 'No Signal' and since its all the time. I have tested the graphics card in another PC and its fine, i also have identical RAM in my spare PC and tried that as well as my old graphics card and the Mobo graphics port in the 'kaput' PC to no avail.

I am completely lost here, i'd like to think im moderately competant with PC's and have overcome many probs via a quick Google and learnt what to do but with this i cannot find anyone with the same prob on the web, ive even searched all the BSOD sites and forums too.

One thing i really have not bothered learning too deeply so far is the BIOS, would a cmos reset poss cure a prob like this or is it just plain blown CPU/Mobo??

Reset the BIOS with the JP5 jumper on the mother board.
Remeber to disconnect the power supply from the wall before disconnecting the power supply from mother board.
Then move the jumper. If you dont have a JP5 jumper on the mother board unplug the computer from the wall then press and hold down the power button for 20 seconds. That will reset to the default BIOS settings. If it don't work you my have to get the BIOS reflashed to the ROM chip on the mother board.
