Hi,
I have just built a new computer using some new and used parts. It is meant to be a cheap system for my Girlfriend who wanted a simple gaming PC. I will explain my issue first and then specs.
Basically on trying to boot the system there is no BIOS sound and no output to the monitor. However, when the memory is removed the POST speaker makes 1 long 'beep' and 2 short 'beeps' which apparently signifies a memory issue, once it is reinserted it goes back to no POST sound. I have looked up some of the possibilities but haven't found any conclusive solutions.
Here are the specs and age of the parts:
Motherboard: ASUS M5A78L-M USB-3 (Used - approx 3 years old, working at last use).
CPU: AMD Phenom II X2 B55 (2nd hand, apparently working)
PSU: Corsair CX500 500W PSU (New)
RAM: Nanya 4GB DDR3 PC3-12800 (2nd hand, apparently working)
GPU: On-board, No PCIe currently.
Any help as to what the problem might be would be greatly appreciated (Especially if it is attributed to a 2nd hand item).
Kind Regards,
Dan.
