So Yesterday I built my first computer, everything seems to run fine, all the fans work.
When I try to connect my PC to my monitor using a VGA cable I get a no signal message on my monitor. I reset the CMOS, switched my RAM on the slots, checked the CPU, but nothing seems to fix this issue. Also, I don't have GPU and i'm using the integrated graphics on the motherboard.
Any help?
 
Solution
Here is something else that may help. It's a guide on how to set up a newly built computer. There may (and probably is) be something that you and I both are just missing that is covered here.

Here is a second link that covers the same topic. Two sources are better than one, as one may cover something that the other did not...
Make sure that BIOS is current and make sure that all drivers for the devices are installed and current.

I'm assuming that this is a homebuilt computer and you're just getting it put together and working. Is this the case or is the situation different?

How do I update the bios without accessing it on the monitor remember it says no signal? And yes, this is a home built computer. Could a USB drive with the drivers update the bios?

 


Yes, it can. And here is the instructions on how to do it. :)
