ok so when my dad first built the PC he was using some crap case with an LED screen on the front. We turned it on and the setup screen came up and such but when we pressed the button it told us to press to setup, it wasn't really responding, so my dad was messing around with the buttons on the LED screen and it was changing the time and everything. but my dad pressed one of the buttons (temperature button) and the whole computer shut down. we turned it back on and everything was still working, all the fans and harddrive, and graphics card, processor and motherboard, everything. but nothing is showing up on the monitor. we tried 2 monitors and both are the same. nothing is showing up. so my dad tried our old hard drive, our old video card, and same result.
so he decided the case is probably short circuited somewhere or something and he went and bought the antec 900 pc case. he went through it slowly building it this time and he started it up, everything working but still absolutely nothing on the monitor.
so...is the motherboard short circuited or something? video card too? everytihng is new except the processor but that was rarely used. my dad built our current PC and it's a gaming one too and works fine. i really need some advice or something because my dad is about to go buy another motherboard and it might not even be that.
