Ordered new mobo/cpu/ram put it all in correctly (i think, my dad did it). When i turn it on it restarts after 10ish seconds, then it boots again but nothing comes up on the screen, no error codes on the back and no POST beepy things. Also nothing is coming up on my monitor.

Any ideas?

This is what I bought.
OcUK Value IP35-S Intel P35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E2140 "LGA775 Conroe" 1.60GHz (800FSB) - Retail
OCZ 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-6400C4 Dual Channel Platinum Revision 2 XTC Series DDR2 (OCZ2P800R22GK)

And what i already had was
BFG 7800GT
psu is http://www.ultraproducts.com/product_details.php?cPath=42&pPath=296&productID=296

One other thing, the motherboard has a 8 pin connecter but both of my psus only have a 4 pin? The review says that putting a 4 pin on 1 side should be fine, but do you think this may be an issue?
 
I cant even get in the bios, nothing is getting to my monitor, which makes me assume is gfx, but if its the gfx it should boot up into windows shouldnt it? And not restart then do nothing.
 
Have you plugged all the correct power connectors in, ie the 4 or 8pin by the cpu and the 24 pin ATX. (IGNORE THE FIRST PART)

Try resetting the CMOS/BIOS.

24 pin definitely in the right place, the problem i think is the 8/4 pin bit, both PSUs i have are 4 pin, but the mobo is a 8 pin slot.

I'll give the CMOS reset a try, but as it's a new mobo, is that likely to be the problem?

Soz, I thought you would still have your 7800GT about?

I'm using that 7800GT in this pc till i can get something better,
 
Well I'm assuming its the psu or the gfx because they are the only components that aren't new in my pc.

Gonna have to take my stuff round to a friends.
