1) If you have access to another monitor, give it a go.

2) Make sure the PCI slot is one of the first few (from the top) as IIRC the
Mac PCI design prefers video cards in the first few slots.

3) Make sure all of the RAM is properly seated and also that the Video card
is well seated too. My 9500 MP went through a bad patch a while back due to
badly seated RAM after an upgrade. Symptom was chime but no video. Sounds
quite like your issue.

4) Try resetting the PRAM with the CUDA switch. That also worked for me.

5) PRAM battery... try replacing it. Could also be the issue.

Oh and last ditch attempt - check the SCSI chain is properly trerminated.
This can also cause a Mac or clone to hang after a chime.

Do you get a breaking glass sound with no RAM by the way?

Hope that helps,

Matt
