Hello, I recently asked the community for a great PC build for under $500 and that is the set up people suggested to me. I bought all the parts and they were sent in. I brought up a Youtube video showing how to assemble a gaming pc and followed it step by step the best I could. After I connected everything and turned on the pc the light for the tower turned on and the cpu fan started spinning but the monitor did not show the BIOS. The monitor, mouse and keyboard is connected properly so the only issue is the connections inside the case. I have extra cords from the power supply and I am not sure whether or not I need all of them connected. I have the SETA cable connected to the HDD but that's the only cord connected to the HDD. I asked my dad to help me out and he had no luck in fixing it. Is there a better tutorial I could watch that can go better with this setup? I realize there could be many errors I have made so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the help! I think that might have been the issue when I posted the problem I decided to take everything apart and start from scratch. I am not sure what was the problem because it worked the second time I built it however I think the power cable might have been the solution so thanks!
