having issues

I recently aquired a BP6 with a single 450 in it. I was going to get it all up and running and then purchase a couple 533's for it. I turned it on about 3 weeks ago, and it hit the post, but didn't recognize the harddrive. No problem, I would install a new one. Yesterday, I went to hit it on again, and no post whatsoever. It didn't send any signal to the monitor. I tried putting another video card in the PCI slot, and it sent a signal to the monitor, but it just grey screened. I'm still confused as to what could've caused this. Could it be possible that I actually did have 2 bad vid cards. They're old ones, but I'm not sure. I haven't played with any jumpers other than the one to clear CMOS and start over. Where would you experts suggest that I start? Video card, RAM, I'm hoping that I don't busted board. Please help

1st try the original setup again that DID post even though it didn't read the harddrive.

If it posts try connect a harddrive to one of the black connectors on the bp6.

Let us know what happens.
