I received my pc parts this week and just tried to get it up and running for the weekend only to find I can't get a signal from my pc to my monitor. I had it in my case already too go and got no love so I've taken it from the case set the mother board on my desk on a piece of card board. all i have connected is power switch,speaker,one stick of ram,video card,hard drive cpu and heat sink. It still won't send a signal to the monitor, i've tried resetting the cosmos, took the battery out for an hour or so, I've tried booting with no ram and or no video card and i receive no beeps, I also took the heatsink off and reseated it. is this motherboard DOA?
