Well not necessarily vga, just whatever video output you've got on the motherboard

Could be that the output on the card is busted. If your motherboard has any output on it (VGA, DVI, HDMI) I'd definitely check your monitor on one of them.

The motherboard does not have any output on it for video, there's no GPU on it at all

It's not the card, unless both of them fried at the same exact time, lol that'd suck huh?


Also, I'm also pretty sure it's not the CPU, I had it running for a bit, turned it off and touched it, apparently if it's warm it means it's working.

what are your full specs of your system?

[.:FancyPants:.]

i just plugged a power source into a computer not too long ago, but i had a professional standing behind me telling me how to go about it; this doesn't sound much like something the power source might have caused unless you simply plugged one wire in the wrong place.

i don't know the technical terms sadly so i'm not of much use, i would probably just take it apart and then plug it all back together just to make for sure that you've got it all together right.

This, expect I'm only running 2 gigs of ram and the Graphics cards are the Nvidia quadro and a palit.

I'm relatively sure everything is plugged in the way it's suppose to

The 20+4 pin is in the motherboard main power, not the axuilery with can only hold a 4 pin.
The single processor has 2 4-pins in it
3 SATAs in 3 hard drives
1 SATA in the disk drive

to what exactly did you hook up the monitor to?

Not sure what you're talking about. Your motherboard should have several different types of video out. Each of the graphics cards you have should have a set of video outs as well. Plug your monitor into the videos out on the motherboard and not the cards

bleh, SATAs and 20+4s are familiar but it was also kind of just connecting piece 1a to piece 1b, etc.

i do recall that the power box i had to plug in had an additional cord i used that supplied a little extra umph to the graphics (or at least it was a cord designed for use between my specific graphics and the power), i'm not sure if you just referred to something like that just then but i might as well mention it.

This is the lower half of the tower. Here I have both VGA and AVI hooked up into two different cards:

This is the top half of the tower, I may not be understanding what you mean by "Plug it in straight to the mother board", because there isn't a VGA or AVI built in.

cannot really tell from the quality but whats this? looks a bit like vga

I was just about to say this.

[orange wolf]

It just as this I0I0I symbol under it with male prongs,  the VGA doesn't if in it.

The other one is a 20 pin video out. I know my dad's got a few of those sitting in our storage space, check around your house to see if you can find one

The reason we're trying to get you to plug straight into the motherboard is to try to isolate the problem, whether it's a problem with the graphics cards not getting enough power or if the whole unit is faulty. (Incidentally, when you test the motherboard video outs you should completely remove the gpus from your motherboard)
