Do you have access to another monitor that you can hook up to that video card? It's possible that the card is no good.

No, the other components shouldn't matter when hooking up a different monitor.
Do you have access to another video card as well? One that you know for sure works? Also, are you getting any beeping sounds from the machine when you try to start it up? |

Well, if the other monitor doesn't work then I'd guess it's either the Video Card that's bad or the Motherboard. Most likely the VC.
Does your card have a jack on the opposite side of where the monitor would hook up? It would be a jack for a power cable. If so, do you have it connected? |

i dont think that there is a seperate power jack. dont remember putting one on to begin but ill check the manual to see. theres a couple of places that you can plug stuff in though. not sure what they are for . ill look in the manual though.
