Hi,
I have read posts with worse English but your explanation is still not understandable.

okey i got my old motherboard whit two HDD 40 GB and 80 GB one of them had the XP system on it. now if i turned it on then everything worked monitor, HDD, CPU. But i didnt have any videocard on it!

OK we have 1 computer with two hard drives 1 is a 40GB and nothing on it the other is 80GB and has a working copy of XP and it works in that computer.

Now i deleted everything on the HDD.

Is that the 40Gb or the 80GB hard drive, and why did you delete everything?

now i had one new motherboard more.

Is this a new computer with a new or another motherboard?

so i installed windows XP home on the 40 GB HDD

Where did you do this as you say later that you have no video display?

but then if i wanted to run the XP on the old motherboard them bam "no video input" on the monitor.

This has me totally lost, where is the old motherboard, is this the one that was working, which hard drive is in it now?

i hope this helped a bit beacause my english isint very good

We are not complaining about your English only your attempt to explain thing to us. We can not see what you have there and you need to tell us all you can so we can understand what you have and what is happening. A lot of posters that do have good use of the English language have the same problem.
