I put together my PC, and I have a dreaded problem that I am cursed with whenever I build PCs. No display when I boot it up. Now it works, it starts, powered, CD drives working, everything fine, but no beeps or sounds, and nothing comes up on my screen. I usually fix it by plugging in EVERY plug in my mobo, but I have the 24 pin, 4 pin, and 3 pin molex in, and nothing else happened!

Ive tried everything, cleared CMOS, tried different variations of my power cables in my mobo. swapped monitors, I just cant get it to work! I tried plugging in a single videocard, each one time.

I have an asus A8n32 Deluxe, x2 EVGA 7800GTX 256MB, X2 4400+, Creative Xfi, and PC&C 850W PSU.
Does anyone have any clue whats wrong?
 
No beeps or sounds means not booting. Do the thing where you try and boot with one stick of RAM, one video card, the CPU, the backplane and nothing else. No drives, even.
 
I tried doing it with nothing but VGa and one stick of RAM and CPU only. Nothing comes up....I would reseat the CPU, but Im too afraid that illf uck something up like I always do when taking off the heatsink
 
As long as it has the integrated heat spreader, I wouldn't worry about damaging the CPU. Besides, I've kicked an Athlon64, (I almost cried) bent all the pins back, runs great. So, do you have a parts-swap-for-testing buddy? That's where you're at. Swapping parts for testing.
