I just bought the stuff below to build a new computer.
Mother board - XFX nForce 680i LT SLI Socket 775
CPU - Intel Quad Core Q6600
RAM x 4 - OCZ 1024MB PC6400 DDR2 800MHz
Video Card - XFX GeForce 8800 GTS
Seagate Barracuda 500GB SATA2 3GB/S 7200RPM 16MB
DVD-ROM and DVD Driver
OCZ 700W power supply


My monitor recieves no signal at all from the motherboard. I have no idea what is going on. The LED on the Motherboard did go on when I press the power butoon. The LED on the motherboard also shows 1d. The hard drive is spinning when i use my hand to feel it. However, nothing showed up on the monitor. Seen many people got this problem as well. Anyone can teach me how to deal with this problem ?? Thank you

Things i have done already
1. Take out the MB battery and put it back
2. Put video card on other computer (working fine there)
3. Check the Motherboard jumper (at correct spot)
4. Check all the cable (doesn't look like it is lose)
5. Rearrange the RAM

Try removing the ATX power connector near the cpu and the main 24 pin power connector then reapply. If that does not work also start a support ticket at www.xfxforce.com and let me know the ticket number.

I have the same issue with my xfx mobo. I bought the bundle from tigerdirect, put it together and no video. I've tried a geforce 5200, and a diamond S60 video card and neither are working. I've also tried a few older cards just to make sure. I've tried to contact xfx per your earlier post and they never got back to me.

I've been having the same trouble. Same bundle from tiger direct, I've tried it with 2, 4, and 8 gb of ram. I've tried it with a geforce 5200, and a diamon s60 video card. I've also tried a few older ones as well. I've take the mobo out and put everything back together. I know the video cards are good. I'm no getting beeps or anything it just powers up and no video. I've tried contacting xfx and they haven't replied yet. I sent them the message 3 business days ago.

I had a similar symptom when one memory stick died. Have you tried with just one memory stick installed? Of course you may need to try this more than once if you put a dead stick in first! If that works make sure that you get the latest BIOS installed and then get the memory voltage up to 2.1V. I found that on auto my board gives a lower voltage than needed.

I'm having what appears to be the same problem. On difference...mine was working. I put everything together, booted successfully, installed OS (and even patches). Restarted several times throughout the process. Shut things down for the night, and when I came in the next morning...DEAD. I get lights on MoBo (blue, amber, and gree), HD spins up...but no POST, no video, nuthin.

I'm dying to get this going, but am getting pretty discouraged at all the postings I see that are similar.
