Hi guys,

I recently just purchased an ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 Motherboard.

I installed everything correctly (as far as I can tell), but I can't get anything to display. This MOBO doesn't have onboard graphics and I'm using my GTX 560 graphics card.

My question is: Can you do a first time setup via DVI, or do you HAVE to do it from VGA?
My main goal is to get display so I can finish the first time setup.

Also, I get 1 long beep and 3 short beeps which means "no VGA detected"

Please get back to me if you know anything, thank you so much.

Hi, thanks for the response.

I do have pci-e plugged in, however my graphics card has two pci-e slots and I only have one of them powered, but the graphics card appears to be on (fans are spinning).

I also tried getting my other GTX 560 to work but no luck...

Should I try to plug in both pci-e slots ?
