hey guys, first post so if i'm doing it wrong i'm sorry :/ but i just received my new MoBo in today. i installed it, booted it up to no display on my monitor and my pc has 1 long beep and 3-4 short beeps. i reseated everything! even my cpu. reseated everything and messed with it for like 1 1/2 hours. still get no display and beeping. so i reinstalled my old motherboard and everything booted right up. the old board is a Biostar A880g+ and the new board is a GIGABYTE 970A-3dp. my other hardware is


CPU- Phenom II x4 965 BE

GPU- MSI Radeon 6950

PSU- Corsair TX 650w

RAM- 2x4GB G.Skill Sniper 1333

SSD-Vertex4

HDD- forget brand 1TB 7200rpm

cpu cooler- Ultra Chilltec



and yes i tried to clear Cmos. so is the board just faulty? i figured i would ask before i wait weeks for neweggs RMA. thanks guys :D

thanks for the reply, i am using an aftermarket cpu cooler that plugs into the power supply. so there is no cpu fan plugged into the MoBo. maybe thats why? another thing i forgot to mention is after the beeps i did hear the windows7 startup theme.

i actually got it working, turns out it was the keyboard. i looked the beeps up and it said it was a keyboard error. so i plugged just the board and gpu in outside of the case in and it worked. then 1 by 1 i plugged everything in and it all works now. including the same keyboard
