Amd Phenom II X4 3ghz
750 watt corsair psu
4 gigs ddr 2 OCZ
Radeon 4890 (unplugged right now)

I can turn the system on and the fans all run, the hard drives spin but I don't get any video out. I'm plugged into the DVI (onboard video). I unplugged the 4890 because I thought maybe a conflict was occuring and just want to keep it simple at first. I don't have the "JATXPWR3: Atx Power Source Connector" plugged in because I couldn't find it on the 750 watt corsair psu. Is this going to keep the motherboard from running correctly and putting out video?
 
Hah? The Corair 750TX should have the 4pin 12V power connector. Most PSU have this connector. This 4 pin connector has 2 x yellow wires(+12V) and 2 x black wires(Grnd). You should plug this in the motherboard as the JATXPWR3 connector provides the +12V to the CPU power circuit.
