So I just built my pc.

And after completing the built I plug it in to the wall and monitor to start up the installs and I get no video out. I realize that there could be quite a few reasons for this, but I have reseated the video card and made sure that the power supply is connected to it. Everything seems to be in working order, I hear the processor, harddrive, the mobo is lit up, the fans are in working order. I cant really find anything obvious to fix. I tried using HDMI and DVI (VGA adapter) from my XFX radeon 5850 to my asus monitor but to no avail. Any ideas?

Try using the integrated graphics for now. Also, listen for POST beeps, and tell us what you hear.

i would use the integrated graphics but my mobo doesnt have it, also there have been no beeps at all. (ive kept it on for about 5 minutes to listen to it and I havent seen/heard/smelled anything that would make me think that something is wrong.

Reseated ram, same result. It may be worth noting that there is an LED gauge on my mobo that is red, but im not sure if this means anything negative.

Mobo is lit up, no beeps coming from it, no funky sounds from anywhere else, hard drive is working. If it were the processor wouldnt the mobo let me know that its dead or not working properly? (also I can hear the processor working.)

Well I feel like an idiot, I forgot to connect one of the 4 pin power supply cables. Wow. Plugged it in and off it went. Works like a charm, installing windows now. Thanks for the help guys. :)
