Im having aboot problem and i dont know what it is. maybe a conflict in hardware?

It does not go to windows when it loads. basicly i turn on the PC and there is no display and the video card fan goes full throttle until i press the power button to turn the Rig off. once shut down i press the power button and bam the PC boots up.

come to think of it. the pc didnt do this with my asus board. it started once i got my gigabyte board. im almost thinking a bad board or wrong board settings?

here is my mobo and Ram:

GIGABYTE GA-MA770T-UD3P AM3: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128392

OCZ Gold 4GB (2 x 2GB): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227479

im goign to go try the other board and let it sit for awhile and try to see if the board does it. unless maybe you guys have another idea first.
 
i noticed the board was out of date on Bios so i updated them. going to see if the new bios fixes the problem or not.
 
got another update. i decided to check the bios version and it indeed was out of date by a few version. once i updated the bios the pc boots up Regular now. i even booted it up with display off then powered it on and display turns on immediatly.

im thinking a bad bios on the board causing vid card or ram not to work properly. Thanks for the help

just one ? could a bad bios version cause instability or a no display sometimes?
