I'm a first-time builder, and I've run into a slight hiccup. Everything is plugged in properly to the best of my knowledge according to the mobo manual and I know I'm getting power to the mobo. All the fans are running when I power it up (CPU/GPU/Case), and the disc drive opens and closes, but I get nothing on the display and no LEDs on the front panel of the case.
System:
Cooler Master HAF 912 Mid Tower
ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 AM3+ Motherboard
WD Caviar Blue 1TB HDD
Samsung 840 Series 120GB SSD
Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus 600W ATX PSU
Kingston HyperX (2x4GB) DDR3 Ram
XFX Double D HD 7870 2GB DDR5 GPU
I'm running an HDMI cable from the GPU to the monitor and I've tried 3 different cables, including the one from my living room TV that I know works properly. I haven't tride using the DVI because I don't have a DVI cable, but I'll buy one if that's a potential solution. I just can't imagint that would be the problem.
I'm not a computer guru, just proficient. So, not to be rude, but the simpler you word responses the more likely it is I'll be able to understand it. LOL
If you need more information or pictures, let me know. Thanks!
