and you have everything connected properly and securely? you're connected to the correct output on the video card?

---

here's what I suggest - remove the video card and plug directly into the motherboard, then install windows

after all windows updates are completed - then install the video card and drivers for it

actualy its connected to the motherboard as the cable that came with the screen is differnt to the one i have on the graphics card! ill check the internal cables in a min is it a problem if i have it plugged into the mobo over graphics card?

mannaged to get that working but now that i put the gpu back it has stopped the screen working again.... i think its because i have the screen plugged into the mobo not graphics card.

i dont have a dvi cable to plug it into the gpu!
could that be the problem? or is it somthing eles?

so the most probable way to fix this issue is to buy the right cable? or is there away to run the gpu threw the mobo till i get a cable?
