No power to mouse/keyboard, and no signal to monitor. Checked everything and cant find the problem.

Michael Howland · Jan 9, 2015

I have just got done building my new pc, using the optical drive, and HDD from my old system. The New pc starts up just fine, but when I hooked it up to my monitor, I don't get a VGA signal. My motherboard is an MSI 970, and does not have onboard graphics. My graphics card is a gtx650. Also, I am not getting a signal from my mouse or keyboard. I have checked the RAM by removing it and putting it back. I have checked the HDD, it is running. The card is secure, and the cards fan is running, proving that the card is getting power. The only thing wrong, is that I cant get power to my mouse or keyboard, and my monitor isnt getting a signal.

It would be helpful to attach an internal speaker to the motherboard.

Michael Howland · Jan 9, 2015

I have one, but I dont know how to use it, could you tell me how?

alexoiu · Jan 9, 2015

Connect it to JFP2 header on the motherboard http://us.msi.com/support/mb/970_GAMING.html#down-manual , pag 1-21.
Then start the board having only CPU and CPU fan installed, both 24 and 8 pin power cables connected. See if the CPU fan does spin and if any beeps.

If you perform all the steps in the troubleshooting checklist found in the stickies at the top of the forum it should help you narrow down what's causing the problem. There's also a link to the checklist in my signature.

I found the problem, and it was that for some reason it wouldnt boot without the internal speaker. Once I got it started, the mouse and keyboard wouldn't power on. Then tah tured out windows didnt used to support usb 3.0

"I found the problem, and it was that for some reason it wouldnt boot without the internal speaker"
Interesting, but... I doubt it.

I rewired everything, but it didn't start till i connected the internal speaker, and it beeped 5 times then started, so i thought it must've been the speaker
