Uninstall everything except mobo, CPU, memory, and video card. Connect the video card to the monitor. Make sure the power cable is plugged into the PSU and to an active outlet. Set the switch on the back of the PSU to "I" and not "O", and also change the voltage switch (if it's there) to the proper voltage. Tell us what happens when you press the power switch (do connect the case wires to the mobo).
 
ok it powers up now,but no video monitor is just black.power light is green the loading light is also on witch is red.what can it be now ?? also theres no beeps from the speaker.
 
I'd take it out of the case and try powering up with only the mobo, ram, cpu, and vid card. Check for any shorts if it does post.
