SO the computer is starting, and you see the lights flickering but the
screen shows nothing.
Check the cables again, and check if you have put the monitor cable into the
correct place on your computer box. It is possible that you are making the
mistake
and putting the cable on the "onboard" display adaptor that is not
operational,
while you should have it connected to the PCI display adaptor. (or the other
way arround)
In other words you may have 2 similar places to plug in the monitor cable
and you are putting it in the wrong one...
tell me if this helps.
IF the display adaptor was not working correctly at all, you would hear some
long beeping noises.
