Ok, so I am not getting a display of any bios or windows obv.
The pc fan turns on, cpu fan turns on, the motherboard has a green light and this comes on. It has no onboard video so I plug in my PCI-E graphics card and plug the display connector into that but am not getting any type of display.
I do know the graphics card works, I am using it now.
I tried multiple times with one ram, both ram, no drives, one drive, sata, no sata and whatever else combinations you can think of and still get no display.
One thing, the display I am using is an Acer and when the connector is not plugged into anything, the screen says "Cable Not Connected." Well, when I turn the pc on the screen just is blank and has no message. Usually screens post a message if there is nothing going on, I believe.
I am wondering if anyone knows what's going on here. I have tried multiple variations of tests. I could place the mb on a surface and try to boot up. What type of surface if any can I lay the mb onto? Maybe a wood desk? Or the padding that mb's come with?
Any ideas, does it sound like the PSU is faulty or the MB is faulty or the CPU even. I really do not believe it is the CPU, I believe I tried another CPU some time ago.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated thank you.
