I just bought basically a new setup, i got...
Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz processor
EVGA 8800GTS video card
2GB Patriot DDR2 800 RAM
and a MSI P6N SLI FI Motherboard
my problem is my monitor is receiving no signal from the Video card. my mobo doesn't have a video output for some reason, just a parallel port, so i plugged my monitor into the Video card, but no signal. i hear the computer start up, all the fans are running, all the lights are lit up, i just can't see whats going on. any ideas? are there any possible connection problems. this was my first time hooking up a motherboard, could i have mixed up any wires to make this happen?
