Before you refer me i went through the checklist.
So i rerouted some cables on my gaming pc and then it booted fine. I looked and one of my fans was not spinning. So i hooked it up with some weird passthrough adapter that i hadnt used before long story short i created a bad circuit and the computer wouldnt spin up just came on for for an instant.

After that i removed the fans and the gpu and cpu fan spins up.
But i have no video. Im using a asus M5a97 motherboard. those are numbers i found on it i cant find the box anymore.
It has no onboard graphics card and im using a nvidea geforx gii-550 graphics card.

Soo After possibly creating a short in my fan circuit i get fans spinning (cpu and gpu) but cannot get video.
Tried using another slot, tried vga and hdmi still no signal.
Have reseated ram and tried using a single stick.
Have checked connections i may have stretched one of the connectors too far but the cable is what looks messed up and it just goes to my front usb port, power buttons on a seperate cable.

I dont have a speaker for my motherboard so i dont know about the beeps, looking into borrowing one from a friend.

Any advise would be appreciated.

Thanks for the quick replys. The power cables definetly in gpu, cpu, and mobo. I had went down to one stick a little after the issue started, I have all fans not plugged directly into the motherboard unplugged, ill go about unplugging those just incase.

Im wondering if the cpu is actually getting power i definetly stretched that cable just a bit but i dont think i put any strain on it its two four pin connectors do you know of a way i can test those i can get access to a multimeter.
 
on a power supply if it working the blacks are grounds. the others would have 3.3 5 or 12v on them if the unit working. on your mb see if there any other fault led on. some mb have post it leds. if not see if a friend or a shop can toss in a post it card to see if your rig posting or you took out the power supply or the mb.

I took the power supply to a shop and had it tested they said all the voltages were good. So i called asus after getting a 4 pin speaker, was getting no post beeps. Sent it in for an rma. Waiting for it to come back. Sorry for the late reply
