I have a problem. I purchased a semi barebones system that I customized a bit. I can't get a signal to my monitor so I can't even proceed with any installation of ...well of anything. The MB has NO onboard monitor plug. I added a Nvidia Quadro 4000 card. It is getting power to the card, I double checked both display ports and the VGA port. I even tried a different Quadro 3800 card and no luck. How in the world do I get a signal so I can proceed? Here are the specs.

Do you have two cables connected to the MB, one 20/4 pin and one 4+4 pin 12v (usually near top left on the board?
Do you have the CPU fan connected to the CPU fan header on the MB.
Power for the Quadro, > https://docs.google....19-10_v1_v1.pdf

Do all the fans spin up??
Do you hear any buzzer or beeps at start up?

What is the exact model of the PSU?
