Monitor Not Turning On

[zipperman]

Check the manual

Why did you not do this first if you want to do your own installation.
Before you ask here.It's mostly guessing here.
It has all the connection details and location of the mbd light.I'm sure every working mbd has one glowing somewhere if it's getting power.What size is the PWS ?
Did you install the Mbd and CPU ?
Did you happen to see a Red light ? That means a video card problem.
That will affect the Monitor.

Have you tried a different PSU. Sometimes bad PSU's will make it seem like the board is at fault. Did you try booting the machine with all the peripherals disconnected (i.e. HDD, Optical Drives, Floppy) Boot with just RAM, CPU, and video card (if you have one installed). If still same issue, you might even want to try a new CPU. I had the same problem last week with a motherboard that gave me no video. When i turned on pc, the CPU fan would just spin, it turned out to be a burnt CPU.

Also tried without any stuff plugged in still the same
I was thinking it could be the cpu
