Alright, so, I am building a new computer and am encountering a problem I have never faced before: when I go to boot the computer, the fans spin up, the drives get power, but there is no display. I get no system beeps or anything (even when something is obviously wrong, such as no RAM is in the board... leading me to think it could be the motherboard).
I've tried to isolate the problem, I've tried running the mobo with just the graphics card, 1 stick of ram, and the cpu / heatsink hooked up, but I'm still getting nothing.
Here are the parts used:
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 BE-2400
Mobo: NForce4M-A (ver.3)
RAM: HP Memory - 1 GB - DDR2 - 667 MHz (part #PX976AT)
PSU: Cooler Master (product # RP-500-PCAR)
Graphics Card: Geforce 7200GS (pci-express)
Monitor: Envision 22" LCD (running on VGA cable)
I am thoroughly stumped... Any thoughts / things to try are appreciated; I have a sneaking suspicion I'm missing something simple...
