New cards but graphics limbo?

[C snake]

Hello all,

For about a month now ive been
using my onboard graphics till i got two asus gtx 980s. I unplugged everything, powered off what not, and connected the cards. Once i had everything in the pci e slots i turned it on but to no output signals of any kind; all slots dvi, display port and hdmi. I made sure my cards had the power pins plugged in right as well as sat in the slots the correct way and everything is good but i still cant get any display on either my tv or my monitor. I disconnected both cards from the mobo and went back to my onboard graphics to check the BIOS however now that doesn't work either and it worked 30 minutes beforehand. I have no idea what to do from this point. Is it a bad card, did i somehow shock something? Any help would be fantastic guys.

Plug into you onboard graphics and see if it outputs, and if it does, used that to go into the Bios and set your primary cards to the GTX 980s, another thing to try is to boot it up with only one card in.
