No video signal

This is driving me mad. I am in the process of assembling a new machine.
Not doing too good so far.

I have a Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4(rev 1.0) M/B with an ATI radeon 1650 pro graphics card.
Upon boot, all i get is a blank screen telling me I have got no signal input?

The card is seated well in the Pci_e slot, but nought else! No POST, no bios etc.

Any ideas?

Jabamusic,
Does your motherboard have it's own intergrated onboard graphics? Is so, try hooking your monitor up to it and see if you get a signal from it. If tht doesn't work, try installing a pci graphics card and see if you get a signal from it and go from there. (i just had recent problems with my machine thats close to what your problem is.)

 

check the ram

 

and all power conections.

 

recheck all your connections and if you have the means test the hardware to make sure you dont have something thats not working right in there.
