Now mount the motherboard into the case with only the same components hooked up and try again - if it fails you have mounted the motherboard incorrectly and something is shorting out or the video card is not seated correctly. If it works, hook up the floppy, hard drive, and CD and install your operating system. Then add the rest of your components one at a time and get each component's driver sorted out, press on to the next one till done.

I am laying odds that you may have an extra standoff under the board without a matching screw hole, or you are using too many plastic standoffs and not enough metal ones.
