I just completed my first build. When I start up the computer, I am not getting a display. The mobo is powered and I am getting a d7 code on the mobo. Specs are as follows:

CPU: intel i7
GPU: EVGA 650Ti boost
PSU: Corsair 750M
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Sport 2x8GB DDR3-PC3-12800
HDD: Toshiba 2TB
SSD: Samsung EVO 120GB
Stock CPU cooler

I went through the entire troubleshooting thread and have not been able to get this to display. Just a blank screen with the "check signal cable" shows. No beeps have come through the case speaker (headphones). I have NOT tried a second monitor (I do not have access to one) and I have been attempting this WITHOUT a keyboard attached (silly me, I do not have one right now).

The case (Corsair 300 mid-tower) did not come with standoffs, but appears to have built in standoffs (http://legitreviews.com/images/reviews/2235/corsair_carbide_300r_15.jpg). The memory is not listed as a compatible version on ASRock's site; however, it is listed as compatible on Corsair's site.

Help is welcome.

P.S. I searched and read every thread involving this problem on the Z77 and have not found a viable solution.
 
Solution
Try it without the GPU, plug disply into the onboard video, a ketboard will enable you to get to BIOS, may need to change the primary display to PCI-E

Problem solved. It turns out that the computer will not output the display without a keyboard connected. I also switched the RAM slots as ASRock recommends using A2/B2 slots first. Thanks for the help!
