Problems w/ New Build

Hey Everybody!
I am now just really annoyed because it seems I keep having video problems. I just recently completed building a computer and I managed to boot it up the first time, but couldn't get the CMOS key so I restarted, after that I discovered that my screen was blank and refused to display my computer. The other time that has happened was when my Albatron 6600GT ceased to work on my other computer. I tried using my other moniter but it didn't work. Somebody help please!
Thanks!

System Specs:
Kingwin Sk-523 Case
Abit x32 A8N SLI x16 MoBo
1gb Corsair XMS
250GB WD SATA-II HD
LG DVD Burner
Antec Truepower 550watt
XFX GeForce 7900GT w/ dual DVI

It looks like either my Graphics card died or my moniter (15" LCD w/ VGA) which I hooked up using XFX's little coverter-thingy, can't support this video card.

PS. Everything else on the computer evidentally works, so I didn't fry my CPU or anything else, just I can't really tell because I can't SEE ANYTHING,

Thanks.

Edit: The MOBO should work because I hear a beep during startup- just no picture to support it.
