Ok recently I bought a motherboard from newegg.com and I set everything up and when I turned on the Pc everything turned on(Fans, HDD, DVD Drive), it sounded like the regular booting noises, the only problem was there was nothing appearing on the monitor, nothing showed up,just a blank screen with the amber light. I called my motherboard company and figured that i was using the wrong processor the whole time. :( now mainly my question is: If im using a wrong processor could that be the reason there is no monitor signal???

yes - using a processor that is not supported by the motherboard will cause the motherboard to fail to boot - the PC will power on, but do nothing else, including provide a signal to the monitor.
