You didn't mention the OS, but did you install the Video drivers for your card
or are you using the Generic Windows driver?

Also, you may want to disable Ring Power Up Control under the PM Wake Up Events in the BIOS.

My brother has the same thing with the same motherboard. Check the monitor connection and make sure that it is plugged in properly, if it is, check you're video card is seated properly in the motherboard, and if it is neither of those, check the actual monitor cable, at the end where you plug it in, and check that all of the pins are present and correct.
