Yes
Connected all the power properly? Not sure if AM3 needs 2 plugs as well.
Does the PSU fan start spinning?
Same, but for CPU?
Do the HDD's spin up?

faulty memory could cause no video to show up on the monitor as well, but if it's popping up momentary now then might not be that. Would by any chance be the connection on your monitor?

age has nothing to do with how video cards perform, unless they were raped by high temps

I remember the first time that I spent over $500 on a video card. Damn Hercules 3D Prophet II Ultra...I also remember buying my first HDD, 5.7GB for $329. Had to make it 3 different partitions. Funny that now we download that much in less than an hour (for some a lot less )
