recently bought a new mobo, vid card, cpu, fan, and ram to upgrade my computer. I installed everything , switched it on and got a blank screen on my monitor. I have checked everything I can check and it works out fine. The monitor works with other computers and everything else seems to be powering up correctly but I still get nothing but a blank screen when i turn it on. My mobo has integrated video and I also bought a graphics card, and I get the same thing with each. I thought it might be a faulty mobo or I zapped it so I sent it back, got a replacement and the same thing is happining. I also bought another mobo thinking it might just be that and I am still haveing the same problems. As far as I know everything is compatible with each other and there is enough power getting to everything to power everything up, however I have begun to suspect that it might be my CPU. I had just the CPU, fan, ram, and speakers plugged in (also had the monitor plugged directly into the mobo) and I tried to run it then, hoping to get anything on the screen. Still nothing. It remains blank (like if the power was off) the entire time. Also, I am not getting any beeps from it either. So does that mean that something is wrong with the CPU? I have checked the connections on everything more times then I can count so I know everything is plugged in the way it is supposed to be. I even tried unplugging the RAM to see if I could get an error beep or anything, and still nothing, so I'm at a loss here. I'm going to list my specs below, any insites anyone has that can help would be greatly appreciated.
