New Did you check your ribbons?
on HDs, CD, DVD, etc (floppy light would usually stay lit if it's ribbon was reversed) to make sure they were all aligned to pin 1 on all connections?

New Yep
Even checked with all ribbons disconnected. Should have given me the video post or at least the beeps. NADA.

New Did you disconnect power to those other devices?
I.E., only the motherboard and the power switch should be connected to the power supply, unless you have one of those funky video cards that require a separate power feed...
