Hey guys!

Got the new computer today, plugged everything in, powered up and get no response out of the monitor. Tried 2 monitors and get same response.

Is there something obvious i'm doing wrong as i've never had to setup a PC w/o an OS installed before?

HEELP :) i need a cs fix

Are you getting any beeping noises or input not supported messages? Check inside and see if they forgot to plug the graphics card into the PSU or something :?

Cheers guys :)

The PC was pre-assembled, if i go in there with my fat fingers then i void the warranty.

The gfx card only has 2 x DVI sockets, but there are also 2 x monitor sockets further up the case?

Goose reckons it might be set to DVI and that a DVI-RGB converter is needed? Or would it be better to just buy a nice new DVI TFT?

:S

I'd go with the converter, no point buying a new monitor unless you really want to. I'm surprised they didn't send you one with the graphics card tbh.
