I havent been in the computer scene for a while and I just decided to buy another system. I am having trouble booting up the system, nothing is showing one the screen when I boot up. Here is what I have...

Asus P5N32 SLI Deluxe
1GB Corsair Twin2X1024A-6400 (512x2)
Pentium 4 651
EVGA 7800 GT
WD RaptorX 150GB

Is there anything I should look for? I checked all the jumpers and connections, everything seems right, but I can't get it to boot. I have the Coolermaster Stacker case and I did not realize it doesn't have a speaker so I can check for any fault codes. Any suggestion for where too look at? Thanks!
 
Do you have any other ram to test it with? Or try using 1 stick of ram at a time. My Asus board would not boot with the new ram I had, I had to use some old ram then after I updated the BIOS the new ram worked. It was an AMD nforce board though.
 
thanks! that did the trick... turned out i needed the update bios to read the ram!
