I built a computer and nothing happens on the screen.

Something's not connected up properly. And to clear the CMOS you unplug the power supply, remove the button cell battery from the board, and short the battery terminals with a screwdriver (Or press the power button a few times, to force the circuit to run out of power.

Make sure your processor is properly seated in the socket, and that if the PSU has a hard switch in the back that it's flipped on, and plugged into the main ATX power socket, the CPU power, and the GPU.

I cleared the CMOS and now the LEDs aren't working. I'll check the CPU now
