I took all of the internals from my HP computer and put them into a new gaming case. The problem now is it turns on but I don't see anything on my monitor. I didn't change or add anything, any idea what it might be?
Thanks,

Check cable connections, check power connections, check for shorts from mobo-case.

If it's still not working, double check the hardware to make sure you didn't fry something in the process, remove all components from the case and build the parts outside it on non-conductive surface. See if it posts there. If so, re-build it, you shouldn't make the same mistake twice.

Good luck.
 
Had this problem when i put my micro atx t-force in my case after taking out Atx.
Make sure that you only have the standoffs needed for your motherboard , chances are that you have a stray like i did thats shorting out your motherboard , good luck.
