So recently i helped a friend put togeather a computer. He upgradeed from his old mother board to a GIGABYTE GA-F2A88XM-D3H
( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... )
to go along with a AMD a8 5600 APU and an AMD MSI Radeon HD5450.
So all was good until we tried to start it up, no signal to the monitor. I'm using a VGA to VGA connection for the display. I read something about a VGA to DVI adapter working but i'm not to sure. Any help would be appreciated.
I have also red the sticky about posting /boot/no video problems and nothering seemed to work

What if you remove the GPU from the PC and connect the display to the motherboard?That also doenst work. The motherboard doesnt come with onboard Video.
The CPU comes with on-board graphics and the board has a VGA port, so it should work.
Also, what happens if you disconnect the hard drive? Can you get to BIOS if you do that?

No, when we unplug the Harddrive nothing booted up. No signal.

Does it give any beep codes when it is turned out? Multiple beeps? Single beep?
Take the GPU out, clear the cmos, keep the gpu out, turn on the computer with the onboard graphics. It might require an update of the bios to get the card to work. Usually with apu's the motherboard will automatically shut off the the apu graphics if it senses a gpu in the board. So, if it is sensing a gpu in the pci-e slot, the motherboard shuts off the onboard graphics, but it needs updated drivers to actually use the graphics.... YOu have a black screen.
Also, what psu does he have?

Did you connect the monitor to the GPU or to the motherboard? You must connect it to the GPU.dkulprit said:

I don't know the model of the psu but its 300 - 400 watts and it worked with the old motherboard. When i was there i didn't touch the cmos, but when looking at the mother board online i couldn't find it.
( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... ) ( i found the batterie but not the jumper thing). So if i found the cmos and reset it how would i go about turning the onboard graphics on?
As for the beeps i don't think there are any beeps but i'm not sure, ill be visiting tomorrow and will check for that.
