My Dimension 8300 will not boot.

It has kubuntu fiesty fawn on it. Both harddrives are formated ext3.

When I plug it in,
the lights light up,
the fan starts,
the harddrives spin,
the keyboard lights up,
the mouse lights up,
nothing appears on the monitor,
the monitor remains in power saving mode,
the abcd lights on the back are all green,
there is no beep error code.

I do not think the problem is the motherboard since when I remove the hardrives,
it does beep, abc are green, and d is yellow.

I do not think the problem is the monitor,
when I unplug it from the computer, the dell no signal screen appears.

I'm not sure if it's the harddrives.
I've remove the master harddrive and replaced it with the slave (and switched the connector thing on the harddrive to make it a master), and it still won't boot to bios. (Although, there isn't an operating system on the slave drive, only data).

I've held both harddrives up to my ear and both seem to have a faint clicking. Although, I don't have enough experience to know if it's the "click of death" or just normal use noise. The odds of both harddrives failing at the same time seems too high to me for that to be plausible.

I've been told it will boot from a livecd without the harddrives functioning, but I cannot get it to boot from the livecd (even though the dvd drive spins).
