HI,
My experience with most people dealing with a P4 the first time, is that
they forget to plug the little 4 wire, 2-yellow, 2 black, square, plug
on to the main board near the CPU.
Not sure if your board has such a plug, some newer ones do not, but if
you see a white plug with 4 connections on the main board near the CPU,
and it's not connected to the power supply, that may be the problem.
Thanks and have a Great Day!

I am building my first PC. I have assembled the components list below.
When I attempt the initial boot, the computer produces no display
(monitor remains on stand-by) and no sound. The power supply fans, CPU
fan, case fans, and video card fans all spin. Also, the memory LED is
on. I believe the motherboard is bad. Is there anyway that I can
verify that the motherboard is bad before I return it? Could the
processor be bad, or would the CPU fan not spin in that case?
Gigabyte GA-8INXP Motherboard
Pentium 4 2.4 GHz 512K 533MHz CPU
Antec TruePower 430W Power Supply
Chieftec DX-01BD Case
Centon 512MB PC2100 DDR
ATI Radeon 9600 Pro Video Card
I have also attempted to boot the PC with BFG GeForce4 TI-4600 and ATI
Radeon 7500 video cards.
