I just put in a new am3+ m5A78l-M LX plus and I'm getting nothing from any of the ports. No mouse no keyboard no signal to my monitor. I also put in a new CPU a FX-4130. Need help fast!

The power light on the motherboard is on and I've went there the manual and made sure everything is in the right spot
 


Do you have a motherboard that has any indicator lights that correspond with an entry in the manual? Try using one stick of RAM and if your system has onboard video try that with the video card removed from the system.

Maybe the processor you just dropped in is not compatible.

Check your bios version and your motherboard's manufacturer's website to see if its good and well. (judging by your mobo's name, i guess its an Asus one)

i just checked it for you... http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A78LM_LX/#support_CPU

It seems the processor you said "fx 4130" is not compatible... You might need to file for a refund, buddy, i'm sorry
