ok, computer's finished from building

3200+
k8vse (just got returned from asus...last one had a fried southbridge)
voodoo3 2000 (to test)
bfg 6800gt (the actualy card i'll be using)
ocz pc3200 plat.
its a compaq p900 monitor = sony trinitron 19'
nec dvdrw (unplugged)
maxtor 160gb HD (unplugged) - maybe fried?
floppy drive (trying to flash bios with it...good idea?)

the problem is that this is the first time i've put this thing back together and trying to get it to boot since i fried that southbridge. Now the problem is that with either vid card my monitor is getting nothing....
any suggestions on what the problem is. I don't care which vid card i'm gonna boot off of, but i'd like to see a graphic or something other than monitor is in power saving mode

try reseating the cables, the vid card and the processor, preferably in that order. i was getting nothing on my build, reseated the processor and bingo, everything has been golden since.
 
tried reseating cpu, vid card....still no display........i wonder if my HD is fried, any way of finding that out?
i mean i haven't heard much sound out of the HD...but a mobo/cpu/vidcard should still boot w/o the HD shouldn't it?
