Just switched everything out of an old case and into a newer case. Hooked everything up and in and double checked things. I power on and all the case fans work, the processor fan works, but no video on my R9800 Pro. So I check to see whats up and i notice that there's no extra molex connected to the videocard. Stupid error I say - so I plug it in and boot up again. This time same stuff happens except there is still no video. I tried my cd rom drives and I'm not getting any power to them either. The system seems to power and run fine except for these few things. I'm assuming that it's a power issue and I tried bypassing some of the fans that were linked from one power molex and directly plugging power into the cd rom drive and directly into the videocard. Still a no go. I tried switching from 115v to 230v ( not sure if this is harmful or not.. kind of stupid but i jumped to it ) and still the same results. Should I switch out this 420 watt power supply for my 350 watt enlight? What should I do to get my system up and running again?
 
I tried using my 350 watt enlight. My computer boots up on 115v and on 230v. What should I be using? Still no video on either one even with the other power supply. I swapped out videocards - a gf 4 ti 4200 and still no video. I swapped out the processor to an 1800 and still no video. I could try swapping out the ram but I doubt this will help. I'm thinking that it has to be motherboard related right about now. The odd thing though is that i get both lights on my NF7-S that say its on and its going. I hooked up speaker and it doesn't even boot. I also tried cmos clear and a new monitor. Didn't help. I'm thinking that somehow I physically damaged the motherboard moving it from one case to another? Doesn't make sense to me that it works fine and it's not getting video though. Anyone else's thoughts would be appreciated I'm in one hell of a bind and I'm supposted to be going to a lan tomorrow morning.
