i did now the computer has no red lights which mean every thing is running fine
but the monitor still says no vga signal yet i installed or plugged in the monitor to the mobo output

Did you connect any require 6/8 pin connectors to the graphics card?

Do you have the monitor plugged into the graphics card? If so try plugging it into the motherboard (or if it's in the motherboard, plug it into the graphics card)

 

[awsomepcgamer]

no what do they look like
do they come with monitor or mobo
send me picture if you can

 

[djscribbles]

The connectors come from the power supply and connect to whatever graphics card you have in the system. If your graphics card doesn't have plugs for these (or you don't have a graphics card) then they are not needed (usually any moderately powerful card will need them).

You can see a picture in step 5 of the list linked by unoriginal1

oh yah i been did those i thought you meant the port with gpu
that shows throgh back of the case

I had this problem when someone tried a first build a brought it to me to fix. In my case they had plugged a floppy power connector into a fan header LOL needless to say it kilt something not sure what but fans spun but no post ever ... I would suggest unplug everything and then set it all up again and try the on board/CPU video first then put in your PEG card and test it.. Also have you tried the video card in another setup yet?

Thent

 

[awsomepcgamer]
