    Why does nothing show on my screen
    I have just built a computer and put everyhting together about nothing shows on the monitor.
    I've changed the graphics card many times and have even brought a new motherboard and tries endlessly with that, but nothing works.
    Is they something I'm missing?
    I've just brought 2 new motherboards on the internet and connected them up, yet having the same problem again, does not show nothing on the screen, not even a bios.
    I've chaged my monitors and still the same problem, yet the monitors are working perfectly with other machines.
    What am I missing?
    Please help?

    Look at the ends of your monitor cable for a bent pin(s).

    Hi there.
    I've had a look at all the ends of the pins, they are all fine.
    The monitor plugs are OK as they pick up other computers.
    I've had this problem with 3 computers now, including 2 new motherboards with onbaord graphics.
    I've even put new graphi

    You seem determined, tahts good, hopefully others will post possible causes/solutions.
    Good Luck

    Does the computer make any POST beeps when you power it on? If it makes anything other than 1 beep that usually means there is some sort of error.

    Also does the video card have a port to plug something into the side of it? If so you need to make sure that the power supply has a plug for it, otherwise it won't be getting enough power to power on.

    Hi there
    Thank you for all your help.

    I've tried everything, I think the possible problem maybe that I have been using a hp p4sd motherboard.
    I have 2 new motherbaords, quiet new as well, recently brought one of eBay and taken one from anither machine.
    They both don't work for some reason. It powers on, the beeps are OK, it just beeps the once.
    But for the life of me I don't know why this happening.

    Ive even tried putting the motherboard back into the original casing for the computer as its got an extra 1 or 2 wires that connect on from the power supply that's in the machine. Don't know is that is the reason but neither did the motherboards work in there.

    Am I missing something?

    And:
    No display on monitor.

    Then Google no display
    Good Luck.
    You tried different cables?
