Just finished building my PC, and i'm using a HMDI cable to connect my PC to a HDTV. Nothing shows up, not even BIOS. This is the first boot by the way. There is no onboard HDMI port, so I used the one on the 7870. Should I get a monitor first and change the BIOS settings? I did everything with the GPU, put nothing got the HDMI to work with the HDTV. I've reinstalled RAM and the GPU. Can any

Have you (in BIOS) enabled or make priority the pcie graphics and (sometimes needed) disabled the
IGPU (integrated graphics)?

Monitor? Not a HDTV right?
BTW, I think it's because I don't have a PS/2 keyboard, so I can't press the key needed to get into BIOS since I have a USB keyboard
I might get a VGA cable, because I think the HDMI port might be broken.

Might have to do with this problem, but I think it's not actually the GPU, but the computer itself won't boot. There is no beep at all. Anyone know how to solve this problem? Everything work fine, the fans and all but there is no beep or sound at all. I've reset CMOS with the jumper and the battery, but this doesn't do anything. Any help please?

It's possible that my CPU and/or mobo are dead or fried so I am going to RMA theme back to newegg. I cannot get anything out of the internal speaker so I came to the conclusion the CPU and mobo are dead. Thread is closed.
