Try removing and reseating your memory and video card. Make sure all connections, cables etc are firmly set.

If that doesnt work, try resetting the CMOS. Than try taking it all apart and running it on an anti-static bag.

Oh thank goodness one of my ram sticks wasn't fully attached
Thanks for the help guys merry christmas!
Sorry for the abundance of threads i make but if i didnt see the ram, i was scared i had touched something that shouldnt be touched etc. etc.

No problem. Good to hear it was something simple.
