Assuming you know the monitor to be working, then this is a classic misbuild, it's time to go back to the beginning and work thorugh the build, chances are you have missed something out, or your BIOS is misconfigured.
Check that you have everything seated correctly and that all plugs are secure, try removing all items from the Mobo such as network cards etc until you have a bare system, this means unplugging all IDE devices (these can cause a POST fail) once you are down to a barebones system try booting up,
I think there is a method of holding down the INSERT or DELETE key during the POST, this can force the BIOS to load defaults.
If this still doesn't work try replacing the memory/ changing the slot and trying again and also try replacing the video card of it still fails.
If it still dont work then it may be a faulty Mobo or CPU,
If it boots at any time then add the devices one at a time until you find what causes the boot fail.
