OK, I am on my 2nd RMA now with a Gigabyte 965P-DS3 (Rev 2), previous boards were Rev 1 but had same problem. System worked perfect for 6 months then just quit, reason for the motherboard RMA.

Basically when I start the system the motherboard and fans power on, but no video.

I have tested the video card in another computer and it works fine.
I have tested the CPU in another computer and it worked fine.
I have tried 2 seperate power supplies (both 400w)
I have tried starting combo in case and outside of case (on top of motherboard box)

I have NOT tried using different memory, but tried booting each stick one at a time and also with out any memory installed (no beeps at all)

No matter what the motherboard powers on and fans run, but no video. Have tried 2 different monitors..

What could be causing this? It's driving me nuts. I know for sure that the video and CPU are working..
 
What CPU are you using?

Also it could be that your ram is bad, were you over clocking before you started having problems?
 
May sound silly but i have to ask.

Do you have a speaker hooked up to the speaker pins near all the connections for the front panel switches and leds ?

What video card ?

The 4 x 4 aux 12V power plug connected ?

Clear the CMOS and give it a shot.
