I just build it today. I followed a youtube newegg video and I read all the manuals. But when I press the power button, it startup and shows me a screen saying to boot for the OS.

Just like the video of youtube showed, I got the same screen, but here is my issue I got no startup beep. I have my speakers hooked up correctly. All the fans work and light up.

Is that normal not to beep at startup? Do these motherboards of 2013 beep at startup anymore?

I have my speaker inserted into the motherboard. My speakers has a light green color tip and I connected to the same color on the back of my motherboard and no beep. I even tried connecting as you said those speakers that comes with the motherboard and I connected to the front panel connections and again no beep.



I first get the MSI startup screen and then I get a black screen with this message saying "Reboot and Select proper Boot device
or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key"
I bought Windows 7 Home Premium retail version. I still have not opened it. I just thought I need to here a beep before I continue.
I am new in setting up a computer, what do I press to go to BIOS?

Edit: Okay I know how to get to BIOS now. What do I do there? Is there a way to fix the post beep to work?

I was talking about the where you plug the wires into the motherboard, it is shown on page 1-26 of the motherboards manual. If the case didn't come with the speaker you can buy one. http://www.xoxide.com/hspc-atx-control-kit.html. But its not really needed as your motherboard has a debug LED. The external speakers will not do a post beep it requires an internal speaker.

I posted at MSI forum after posting here. I someone called anDrasch at the forums said
Why I didn't heard any POST beep code when the motherboard start up?

I just found out the newer MSI Motherboards do not post beep anymore.

I am glad to know I did everything correct. I just installed Windows 7 and I installed all the drivers. And I had no issues what so ever. I am glad to know that I did everything correctly. Thank you everyone for replying back to my post.

One question how do I mark my post as solved?
