No video out of motherboard

I am rebuilding my pc and have bought everything new except the RAM. I don't get anything from the onboard video. The mother board and CPU are new as is the power supply. I remove the ram and I get no indication that the pc cares. No beeps or nothing. Do you think that I may have a bad mother board? It is an ABIT IP-95 motherboard.

The keyboard does flash. All my fans power on and I think I hear the hard drive trying to spin up. I get nothing on my monitor.

Have you got a gfx card working, or are you running out of motherboard graphics for now?

So there is no gfx card instaled?
What type of monitor is it that you have?
Has it got the correct connecter for the motherboard? Check the symbol next to the port that you are connecting it to.

I think he has used an integrated/onboard video.

See to it all the connections inside the cpu are tight and snugly connected.

No beep code sounds means no case speaker was connected in your system. Try to connect it and let's interpret the beep code.
