  • It's not like it's Rocket Scien...oh wait...
are your drives spinning up? are you getting boot sounds from your speakers? if it's just a black screen check your monitor cables and graphics card. There's some great tech help alot of the guys can offer but we're gonna need some more info. Best of luck!

if your motherboard has integrated graphics, try removing your graphics card and running of of just the integrated. my guess is that's your problem. what hardware are you running?

damn man. nice setup. i would try the graphics card in a different pci slot . if there's still no dice, see if you have an old spare laying around to see if that's your problem

  • If life hands you lemons, ask for Tequila and salt
Also, what motherboard do you have? As a sanity check, if you pull out the ram from your motherboard, and then turn on the PC, do you get a bunch of beeping?
Also, the GPU (video card) also should spin up (loudly) on boot, and then spin down as the BIOS wraps up. Does the fan on the video card stay loud, or simmer down after a couple seconds?

The reason I asked about the black screen of death is I had the issue when I tried to set my ram to 1600.  It is 1600 and the mobo was only recognizing it as 1333.  Found out later I had bad ram.  I will never buy GSkill again.

Black screen with no pointer is normally gpu as others have already said.
