I jsut build a computer and i need help 07/30/

specifically the computer turns on all the fans arerunning the lights are on processor fan is running just when ite comptuer turns on there is no beeping and theres nothing that shows up on the screen. I tried putting the porcessor back on and its in correctly the memory is in correctly. All perihperals are in the correct slot and the IDE cables are plugged into the correct slots. I have an AMD Duron processor 1.4 GHZ socket 7 9 gig hard drive western digital ,geforce 4 video card, SV live sound card, ethernet card, anda Chiptech mother board that supports AMD Duron . all fans, HD, and CD roms turn butthe computer doesnt boot up to the BIOS.

 
I would suspect it's the power supply. If you have a known good one, try swapping it out. Also, try starting up with the bare minimum (video card, RAM, hard drive, CPU). Leave the other cards and drives unconnected for know. Hope this helps.
 
First off, socket 7? Isn't that from the Pentium MMX days? Second, Chiptech? Are you sure you don't mena Chaintech or some other company?

I'd go ahead and reseat the stuff a couple of times, then test out everything by putting in spare parts in place of the vid card, CPU, ram etc. Swapping is very helpful.
