I built a my own system and after several hours of work I have been able to power up the system, however there is nothing displayed on the monitor. I have checked the troubleshooting thread and have gone through all the steps and everything is squared away.
System:
MB: MSI 990FXA-GD65V2
CPU: AMD FX 8320 with stock cooling fan.
PSU: Sentey XPP 625 (625 Watts)
RAM: Crucial 8GB Ballistix 240 Pin DIMM DDR3 PC312800 (One Stick)
GPU: XFX Core Edition R7 250X
SSD: Kingston HyperX Fury 120 SSD
-I tested the power supply with the paper clip test and it functions. I have not found anything to short the board.
-All wires are tucked away. It is in a custom wood case that has a coat of rubber on the inside to act as insulation.
-The system can power up with or without the graphics card.
-The GPU and CPU fans do power up, along with all other fans. It sounds like they also adjust their speeds After powering up.
-The MB has a CPU Phase LED panel which lights up completely when powered on.
-The keyboard and mouse receive power, however the keyboard does not change Cap Lock/Num Lock/ Scroll Lock when pressed. It has indicator lights for when they are on/off and they do not change. The keyboard does work with other systems.
-There is no POST beeps, however I am not sure if it uses them. I have scoured the manual for anything regarding beeps with not even a mention.
-There is no operating system on it yet. I have a USB drive with a legal ISO to install Windows with.
The display itself does work. It is a Samsung LCD TV that I used for my previous system. It can tell if something is plugged in and if there is a signal. When I power up the system, it registers that there is a signal and begins to "display" but the only thing shown is black. As soon as I power it down, it tells me to check the signal cable. This is repeatable and I can only use the GPU video port since there is no on-board ports for it.
It seems like everything is functioning, but at this point I am not sure where to go from here
I do apologize for the length of this post, but I figured getting all the information upfront would be the best to figuring out what is going on.
Hope to hear from someone soon!
