my friend got a new computer, custom, he built it himself, upon first turning it on, there is no display on the monitor, he's using a 7600GT, his motherboard is definitely working cuz he sent it back to ASUS just last week to have it checked. He thinks that the 7600GT is working fine, but I haven't had time to go over and check it out yet, could there be anything else that is making his computer act like this? All parts are brand new, and it's never been used so it can't be viruses or anything.
 
the monitor, has worked before, and to my knowledge it still does on his other computers. he's using a 420watt psu.
 
Raidmax Sagitta Case
1024 MB RAM
AMD 64 3200+
ASUS A8N-E motherboard
eVGA 7600GT
420 Watt Case PSU
80GB IDE HDD
tell me if i forgot anything.
 
Does the video card have the 4 pin power plugged in?

I would suggest a new PSU, at least 500Watts.
