Problem with newly built system Dave 03-01-06

Just built a new system based around the Intel BOXD945PSNLK Motherboard
using 2GB of PC5400 DDR2 RAM, and an eVGA GeForce 7800 GTX and I cannot
get it to boot at all.

When I hit the power button the power lights and HDD light come on,
Processor fan spins up, PSU fan spins up, Graphics card fan spins up but
no display whatsoever and no POST bleeps!

Tried re-seating all power connectors, RAM, and Video Card but still
nothing!

Any ideas guys?

Is the ATX12V 2x2 power connector, in place ? It is the power
source for the Vcore converter, and is necessary to make the
processor work.
