Hi guys

I just bought a new computer, which I assembled last night. To my dismay, it doesn't work :(

The system i bought is: Abit NF7-S v2.0 Nforce 2 Ultra mobo, Athlon XP 2600 333MHz bus, Cooler Master fan/heatsink, 2*256 TwinMos PC 3200 DDR, Gigabyte Radeon 9700 Pro and a WD 120GB SE 8Mb cache HDD. The case is a Chieftec 360W.

The thing is, when i start it up, all the fans are working (mobo, radeon & cpu), but I get no screen or anything. It's just black, don't even get to the BIOS. It doesn't beep or anything... But the LEDs on the mobo is working, one red and one green.
I've tried having only one memory at a time, but to no avail. I've tried ejecting the HDD, DVD and Burner, but it's the same no matter what. I've also tried resetting the CMOS.

I don't have any PCI-cards installed at all.

Anyone who can give me a clue?

Anyone who's had any trouble with the NF7-S v2.0?

Yeah, try reseating everything. I had that problem here and I was freaking out, but I think it was just the memory. Make sure those little things snap into those slots. I find it works best to make sure they both close at the same time. Welcome to the forums!
