Howdy, I've just finished building my first custom built computer but whenever I try to boot it up the monitor shows "vga no signal." The motherboard doesn't have an onboard video chipset so I'm using the GPU below, now I've checked the monitor and the cable itself and they both work just fine, I've tried plugging a different monitor with a different cable to the computer but I get the same "no signal" message. Everything seems to boot up normally, all the fans whir as they should and I've tried resetting the video card, inserting the CD the video card came with, even resetting the ram trying 1 stick then 2, mixing and matching but to no avail. I'm hoping to find a solution that doesn't require buying new parts if possible, any help will be appreciated.
