Howdy,
This is my first time building and I'm stuck. I've got a Gigabyte GA-H77N, i3 3220, 8gb Kingston HyperX RAM, and a Corsair CX500 psu. It all went together just fine, but when I boot I get the BIOS splash screen and then... nothing. The keyboard doesn't respond and the video goes dark but continues to send a signal to my monitor (when disconnected, the monitor says there's no signal). I had a SATA hard drive in there but I pulled it as it had an old version of XP loaded onto it and seemed to cause crashes and reboots. I've tried to boot from a usb drive and an external dvd drive, but since I'm not getting past the bios, I'm not really getting anywhere with that, either.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
