Hi Guys,

Having some issues with a new PC ive built, the issue is that the thing powers up twice! it turns on.....3 seconds....turns off....then comes on and stays on....but nothing displays on monitor, im missing something obvious but cant work it out for the life of me, im sitting here right now and its doing it with just the MOBO, GFX, CPU and RAM in, any ideas?

Hmm could be a feature (bloody stupid one)

no beeps, red light on MOBO to signify power though it, then green light when on.

Monitor not getting signal, orange light with DVI and VGA.
 
no problem, thanks for the assist.

Just tried monitor with the DVI and its ok another machine, I had this issue with my first build and it was the third power slot on the MOBO i had missed (ATX4P1 on this MOBO) but ive got power to it this time. Really am stumped.
 
OK im really stumped, have tried my GFX from this machine (7900GT) in the new machine and it wont work either???
 
AHHHHH no ****king way! apparently this board, (ABIT IP35-E) doesnt support 533mhz ddr2, guess what speed my RAM is?? FFS!!

Actually the manufacturer page says it does support it, but lots of results in google for 533 causing problems.
