have you checked the cables post your result
Yeah, check all the cables - as always!
Its probably the graphics card - make sure it is in correctly, ie take it out and put it back in. If that does not work, remove the ram and put it back one stick at a time.
Its possible that you discharged a bit of static onto the board, scrambling the Bios, so you might have to reset it. Did you have it overclocked per chance?
