I just installed my new computer, and yes I installed that case speaker and I tried switching it around I thought maybe I plugged it in the wrong way or something.

Suffice it to say, everything seems fine. Computer starts up, I see an image (EDIT: Its hooked up to the video card and i get a picture, I just plugged it into the mobo and no picture, I'm gonna double check, seems like mobo is doa EDIT2: Just realized my mobo doesn't come with a video chip and my cpu is a xeon, no hd chip), it goes to the bios,the motherboard seems to recognize everything, however, there is no "beep" from that case speaker. I installed it into the "JFP2" connector on my mobo if you are curious. How do I test to see if everything is fine just perhaps those particular connectors are bust or maybe that case speaker went bust?

The motherboard video is disabled when a GPU is installed, so of course, connecting the monitor to the motherboard yields no picture.

Pay attention to my details. The display from the video card works fine and I know why the display from MOBO doesn't work. What the problem here is, despite everything else working fine, the case speaker (That vestigal speaker that hooks up to the motherboard) does not "beep." So what I'm asking is, essentially, if everything else is working fine should I even worry about that case speaker not working for whatever reason?

Forget the speaker. If the PC boots and works fine, then it is not throwing an error code.

Hmm alright I appreciate your input. It just kinda bothers me that it's not beeping :p

It doesn't matter. It should be connected to the JFP2 header just as you have it. The speaker could be broken. I wouldn't worry about it.
