New System and No Video Signal Detected

[paramount]

Hello,

I'm building myself a new system and having difficulties. When I start my system I have no video signal and do not hear any POST beeps. I have removed any unnecessary connections and right now but the result is still the same. The monitor is not the problem as I have tested it on two other systems with no issue. I have tried using only one module of RAM and switching it with the other but there is no change. When I do start the system the GPU fan on the 7800 GTX 512 starts along with the HSF but I'm not sure if that helps determine anything. The PSU seems fine from testing and is a OCZ PowerStream 520W so I don't think that is the problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I'm out of ideas. Thanks

Full system specs and model numbers would help out a lot more... testing with another video card is all i can really say...

from what u say it can be quite a bit of things going on here. Sometimes associated with the molex connectors not being connected to the video card.

is the video card seated properly??

Is your motherboard being grounded out because of bad contacts?

I've tried reseating the video card several times to be certain but to no avail. I've checked to make sure there is no issue with grouding out also.

Is the ATX 12v connector plugged in?
