OK, I'm going to assume it is as there is no thread for build your own. I'm following mechBgon's guide for first timers and have got to the mobo bench set up stage.
I've the CPU, memory, video card and psu plugged in, as well as a screen mouse and key board attached. I've powered up (switch plugged in to the mobo) the fan on the cpu and video card are working and a green light is showing on the mobo but nothing, zilch, on the screen.
The kit is:-
Asus A8N-SLI premium
Athlon 64 3700+
Gainward Bliss GeForce 6800 GS
Corsair 2GB twin DDR
Antec case and 550w psu.
I've read elsewhere that the static bag can conduct and my fear is that it was sitting on it with the cardboard box when I plugged the power into the psu. Before I switched on the case power switch I had removed the bag but was this too late??
Help gratefully recieved please. John
