i bought a combo from ebay, a848P-A7 Motherboard

For Intel Pentium 4 LGA 775 and a processor LGA 775 3.0Ghz Pentium 4
processor w/ Hyperthreading Technology. installed the motherboard
correctly and it turns on the fan and the video card which is
radeonx800xt platium edition, but when i install my monitor of VGA
connection nothing shows up. i even tried a geforce FX 5500 PCI and
nothing, of course these video cards work in my old mother board. i
wanted better performance so i just replaced my motherboard and
processor...am i missing anything? the jumpers seem to be okey..is it
the video card?? for my memory i installed a 1GB DDR RAM 184 pin
(400mhz) and one with 266mhz of 1GB...i m kida new so please you
experts out there give me a response or idea , it will be greatly
aprreciated....thanks

i’d look to your psu first. try posting with just the vid card(5500),
1 stick of memory and hs/fan. be sure to clear the cmos/bios.

what brand and model psu are you using?

hs/fan.

hopefully the system will boot to video. then you’ll know for sure
that you need to replace the psu with a better one. something with
12v/20 or 22amps.

what brand and model is the 400 watt psu?
