Hey all, I recently put together a new machine and I'm having some major problems. Here are the specs:

Thermaltake tsunami VA3000B series case
AMD athlon 64 3200+ Venice core
nvidia geforce 6800GT
antec truepower 550w PSU
120GB S-ATA HD
ASUS A8VE-DELUXE motherboard
2GB of PQI turbo RAM with CAS timings of 3-4-4-8 (1GBx2)

Heres my problem:

When I turn my computer on with everything plugged in (monitor, keyboard) nothing happens. The fans light up and start spinning, and the CD-drive ejects itself and lights up, as does the floppy drive. But my monitor, keyboard, and all my other stuff (with the exception of my optical mouse, which lights up for a few secons then shuts down) doesn't respond.

What's weird is I also don't hear any BIOS beeps or anything. Is there a plug that I missed or something? I put in the 20-pin ATX connector, as well as the extra 4-pinned one. So I should be getting enough power I think.

Can anyone help me?
 
did you connect the case speaker? or does your mobo have integrated one..? try clearing CMOS.. also try taking out RAM and see if you hear any beeps.
 
turn it on with nothing attached.
take off the CD and hard drive take out all the but one stick RAM.
Leave the Video and see what happens. Does it post?
