hey guys i recently put together a new system.
AMD3200+
Asus A8V deluxe motherboard
1gig pqi ram
ATI 9800 pro graphics card
Ok, all went well at first, i loaded windows xp pro got the net working etc then realised i hadent connected the speacker plugs to the motherboard. so i shutdown and done so (by the manual) now when i try to boot up nothing comes on the screens. (although everything seems to power up)It seems to not post although there are no beep errors. I've been very careful with everything and i;ve taken it all out and put it back in. The only thing i can think of is the graphics card has gone bad. i've seen a few posts in here very similar with the 9800 pro not starting up the computer but no solutions to fix it. Any ideas? i wanna use my new comp!!
THanks guys and sorry bout the long post lol

The Radeon 9800 has a power cable connected, make sure its connected up to the PSU for it to work.
