Quoted from lrigney:

Some more clues would help:

Is the MPU a Williams board (if so, what version - should be 11A) or is it an aftermarket board?
Status LEDs on the MPU? What are they doing - if anything?
Post a clear photo of MPU so we can assist to make sure everything is plugged in correctly. Ideally, if it has not been done: check all power supply voltages with a DMM before ever plugging in another board.
Are the displays doing anything at all?
