So I thought I had fixed the problem but when I went to install Windows on the new PC I built tonight I only see a blank screen. I don't hear any beeps from the motherboard. I've tried useing just 1 stick of ram, in both slots. I've cleared the CMOS and taken out the watch battery and put that back in. Checked all my connections and made sure they were good. I've ran out of ideas. Also, I have the motherboard outside of the case, but screwed onto a motherboard tray that slides into the case. Wanted to bring that up since I read something about a bad ground in another thread. I've got a DFI board, so I'm useing the button that's located on the motherboard to turn it on and off.
Also, about 8 hours ago I had the system working, and the Windows XP CD was in the drive and it booted from it. When it got to the main menu I opted to exit the installer, I had to go to work and didn't have time to finish the install. Then it gave me 10 seconds or so to restart and when it restarted I held down the power button and shut the system off. Don't know if this has anything to do with it not working, but I thought I should include that information.
