Issue on new build

[dex]

Hey all,

I am hoping someone here can help me out. I am completing my first build tonight and I am running into some issues. I have all of the hardware wired and hooked up. But every time I try and boot the computer, the LED lights come on, PSU and case fans start spinning, the fan on the graphics card starts spinning, but nothing comes on the monitor.

There are no beeps to indicate an error and I am stumped. I have checked all of my connections and the only ones that I am unsure of are with the hard drive. I have that serial ATA cable hooked into my hd and hooked into SATA 2 on my motherboard. The hd seems to be getting power as it is slightly vibrating. But from what I have heard, you should hear the hd "boot up" with a series of clicks and/or beeps.

Any clues? What other information do you need to diagnose?

The help is greatly appreciated!
