Hey

I have built a gaming pc al the parts work but theres problem. When i turn on the it stays on for like a few seconds and turns off and turns back on by it self and then it stays on but it doesnt display anything on the screen. When its on i see all the parts running like the cpu, gpu, internal fan, cd drive but it wont show anything on the screen. I have connected it to the monitor using a hdmi cable. Can someone help me out please for why it turns off and on and show no display.

Thank you
 
Solution
Hdmi ain't standard for new pc's, from my knowledge i recommend you to use the "classic" cable if you know which one i mean. Hdmi is often used as an secondary screen.
