If you tried a different video card instead then chances are the video card isn't the issue. Try one stick of memory at a time.

coming from the other thread, ALL power cables properly plugged in? nothing shorting out?

do plz drop us some specs, memory fails us on the many questions and different builds around here :)

Is the 4-pin power socket for your CPU plugged in? When I got my C2D, that one held me up for days because I was used to older Athlon/PIIIs that didn't use that power connector.

Or how about posting a picture of your computer's innards?
