Does this sound like a motherboard problem?

I recently got all parts in from the build you guys suggested, which is awesome by the way . . . I got everything together, but when I try to turn it on . . . the only thing that seems to have any power is the graphics card . . . nothing else will turn on, and by turn on . . . I mean the lights on the graphics card turn on, but I still get nothing on my monitor just the no vga signal. My graphics card is plugged directly into my power supply, I took it to a computer tech and he tried it with another power supply and the same thing happened . . . my motherboard is brand new, like less than 4 days old, I have already got another on the way and I am sending the other back . . . but I just wanted a second opinion. Thx!

I guess it was the motherboard, I changed it out and it's up and running. I have one more problem though, I have no sound through my computer . . . I think it has something to do with how my sound card is set up, I know it's reading it cause when I check it says no problems found and all drivers are up to date . . . it says something about no hd sound device found.
