No Video Output From Mobo

So I recently (this morning)got an asrock fm2a88x+killer mother board when I installed it my tower came on all the lights worked fans were running but there was no video output. I also got a new hard drive so I thought maybe its because I have no os. . . is it possible that that's the reason and how can I install my os if I can't see what I'm doing

Hi. It is not the OS that you have no display. A mobo connected properly to a monitor must have a screen display even when the HDD is not installed when powered on. Causes of failure to display can be either one on these:
1. Corupted BIOS - remove the BIOS battery for sometime or switch the BIOS jumper to reset them
2. Bad or dirty RAM sticks/slots - try cleaning the RAM slots if your RAMs are the once you took from the older mobo
3. Bad processor - replace it
4. Bad VGA slot - get a graphics card
5. Bad GPU - reball or replace it
