I have a simular problem.
ati x1900xt 512mb
Just built a new system.
Gigabyte ga-965-s3 (lga775)
intel core 2 duo 6400
antec smartpower 500w
mushkin ddr2 667 2x1gb
hanns 19" widescreen lcd monitor


At startup fans work. vidio card connection light comes on
No vidio to monitor, just black screen.
I have analog from monitor with DVI adaptor to comp
No light on key board
no speaker so no post beeps
Tried setting up outside case to check for a short got the same results.
Had a rosewell heatsink and fan on it to start with. When I'd turn the comp on it would start to go and stop until I gave the fan a little spin, then it would start. Replaced it with stock heatsink and fan and Had 2 or 3 second delay before the fan would start.
I'm thinking Power Supply OK Motherboard BAD

Any help would be appreciated
 
I'm thinking motherboard fine, power supply and/or RAM issue.

Antec PS are notorious junk, and the 965 boards are picky on RAM.
