Hi all, I'd appreciate help / comments on this one.

I have just built a PC based around Supermicro P2DLE motherboard with Matrox
G200 AGP card. All peripherals & montor I know are working transfered from
another PC. Upon booting for the first time I get no monitor signal from the
card (the monitor is completely blank). I have tried chaning the VGA card
for another PCI one - same problem. I have tried a second monitor - same
problem.

I am totally at a loss. One thing, the power supply from the Case
(supermicro 750A) come with a lead that I dont understand - 6 pin labled
"P2". Whats this? Its quite big, about half the size of the ATX power
coupling.

Appologies for the cross post but I desperately need help please!!
