No Display on Monitor

I recently had a Sun Ultra 45 shipped to me, when it was shipped it worked fine, but now I cannot get a display on the monitor. It did get a little banged up in shipping. I monitored the POST by connecting to the TTYa port and the only thing that looks like anything is wrong is:

Once it comes up with an '{1} ok" prompt, I can boot it with no problems, I can ssh into it no problem and nothing appears to be wrong with the OS, just nothing on the monitor. I have tried a known good video card on both the PCI slots and the same thing happens. I am fairly new to troubleshooting Solaris so any help and suggestions are welcome.

uname -a info

Code:
SunOS <hostname> 5.10 Generic_118833-36 sun4u sparc SUNW, A70

Thanks.
