I built my first computer 2 days ago. I had the same problem but after I put the RAM correctly in the first spot, it worked. Today i received graphic card and hard drive mounting kit so I place them where they needs to be. And then it started to not work again. I thought the problem was the graphic card so I took it out and started computer. It doesn't work! I did the same thing to hard drive and RAM but still won't work. Every cable is where they need to be. Plz help me..!!

I had the same problem on my old PC, first time I turned it on it worked for about 5 mins then the screen froze.
Tried to restart it, no video input.
I used the GPU on my new PC, it worked, everything was fine, no crashes.
I put the RAM from my old PC to my new PC, again no video input.
I put the GPU from my new PC back into my new PC, it worked, no crashes.
I put the RAM from my new PC back into my new PC, it worked, no crashes.

It's probably the RAM, or the RAM slots on the motherboard.
Try using the RAM in your friends PC and see will it work, if it doesn't get new RAM.
