    You need to explain a little more of what you are doing. It is not evident from what you have in your post.

    What are you plugging into the video card? The monitor? What brand is the monitor and what video card do you have?

    does the computer do any beeps like 3 when 1st starting up as 3 beeps indicate video usually. if no beeps at all than reseat all cards, ram, power & data cables.

    Do you have the AGP model or the PCI model? Do you have it in the right slot? Try reseating it, and check all of the connections.
