no display

[aintnothang]

I took my pc apart to paint the case flat black. When I just tried to power it back up there is no display. Also my fan keeps revving up and down. Can anyone plz help me get my pc to display? I want to use my new 5750...=) which I haven't installed yet.

Did you attach both power cables on the motherboard?

[aintnothang]

I attached the large one and the CPU. What other one?

[Luke122]

that's the two I was talking about.. the cpu and the atx connector.

Ok, have you got a system speaker? Any error beeps? Try reseating your ram and GPU as well. If still nothing, try reseating your CPU.

I believe I have a speaker, not sure if it works because I have never tried it. I tried reseating the gpu and and putting the new gpu in and still nothing. I will figure out where to plug the case speaker in at. Time to reseating the ram.

Check all your connections first. Then check your BIOS, it could be set to boot off of your on board video.

[aintnothang]

I don't have on board video.

This sucks.

Could it be an issue with the ground?

I doubt it, but it's possible. Are all of the power cords plugged into the GPU? Try starting it up with only the motherboard and GPU plugged in.
