Help, What have I done

I replaced my cpu, powered the system up, The bios reported finding a new cpu and asked me te review the settings. I noticed one of the hard drives was missing from the setup. The HD power cable had come lose. At that point I think I did something stupid. Instead of exiting the bios setup I powered of the system with the power switch and connected the HD power cable, then powered on the system. Fans come on, standby power led on, no beeps, no display. What can I do now?

Hardware: Asus P5Q Pro MB, Asus eah4850/hdt/ video, Q9550 cpu, 2 - WD Caviar SE16 sata300 500gb HDs, 8gig OCZ Platinum DDR2 memory.

Turn it off. Unplug the power cable. Remove the motherboard battery for about 5 minutes.

Then reverse the process. Put the motherboard battery back in, plug in the power cable, then turn it on.

See if that helps.
