i put all the bits together and got no video. i have cleared the jumpers still get no video. im using old comp rite now is gf3 ti200 and i try to put it into new comp and got no video. the power is all running fans are spinning. heatsink is bit warm so CPU working. i reseated all the hardware. no beeps. i keep thinking is the gfx card or power supply. not enff power for gfx card.

Hmmm.. the vid card should work. I'm pretty sure I had a GF2 GTS in my NF7-S temporarily, no prob. Was the card pulled from a working system or an old that you had laying around? If the latter, can you try the card in another computer? Or borrow another vod card to try on your mobo. I'm assuming the monitor light goes to green than back to yellow?

Although the psu is pretty weak (is it generic or good named brand), it doesn't seem right that it would single out the just the vid card, rather it would lock up pc etc.

if the vid card was bad I would expect a beep code, is there one if you try to boot up w/o the vid card?

Just a thought, recheck mounting of your heatsink. Is it flush?

the mointor did go green to yellow, GF3 t-200 i took it from DELL 4300 computer which i bought the comp itself from the newspaper, there is no beeps and CPU been reseated and warm when i start up so this mean CPU working. im getting new gfx card FX 5700 AND 430WATT POWER SUPPLY if it still didnt work i guess i get new CPU
