please help! new, fairly good hardware, POSTS but no video signal!

[mr0range]

I've just purchased a new 1.33 tbird with a vantec 6035D HSF, 512mb DDR RAM (crucial pc2100), an EPoX 8kha motherboard, and an enermax 350W power supply to top it off. I turn the machine on, everything spins up, led's light up, i hear it POSTing. THe problem is, i get no video on my monitor. I have tried booting with an AGP tnt2 ultra, and a PCI voodoo 3 with 2 different monitors, a viewsonic and a dell TFT. I can't get a damn signal. PLEASE help me! I really hope my motherboard isnt dead.. its going to be a huge ugly hassle if it is..

See if your RAM is in all the way. While you're at it, check all the cards/drives and their corresponding wires/cables.

DO you have all the jumpers on the MB set right? (does it have jumpers? - RTFM)

Can you get into the bios? Check the settings. Clear the cmos or reset to default if you are not sure what to set yet.

I am guessing your hang is at the CPU (voltage, fsb or multiplier issue).

Quick search at Epox shows this Maybe tool around there for some more info. You might find something specific to your mobo....
