Trouble with newly built PC. Help!

Posted by tom1356 (A) on December 30, 2006 at 21:51:21

My brother thought it would be fun for us to build a home theater/ music server PC. So he bought the parts for me for Christmas. We assembled it today but there is a problem. The LED’s on the front of the case don’t light up and the monitor stays blank. On the plus side the Led on the mother board lights up, the hard drive spins, the fan on the processor spins, the DVD drive opens and lights up. I can’t get past the lack of anything on the monitor and I have no way to troubleshoot the system beyond using Intel’s on line help. According to which everything is installed correctly. Before I give up and bring it to a pro, does anyone have any ideas to try?
The system is:
Intel 2 Duo core processor
Intel mother Board DG965WHMKR
Windows Vista Ultimate
Seagate 500 gig SATA drive
550 watt X2 power supply
Kingston 2048 mb ram 2 x 1024 mb
DVD read write drive
Ultra Aluminus mid tower ATX case
