Hello everyone, I am trying to build a gaming PC, but every time I have tried to get it to work it won't start up to the bios screen to get it started. I have tried two motherboards (the same one bought twice) and have tried different ram and taking out the video card, the motherboard will never make any beeps, but everything will power on cpu, video card, everything. Wondering if anyone could give any suggestions? I was thinking about buying the v2 of the motherboard and seeing if that will help.
These are my parts.
AMD A10-5800K 3.8GHz Quad-Core Processor
MSI A78M-E35 Micro ATX FM2+ Motherboard
Team Elite Plus 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Hitachi Travelstar Z5K500 500GB 2.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive
EVGA GeForce GT 740 2GB Superclocked Video Card
Thermaltake VL80001W2Z ATX Mid Tower Case
Corsair CX 600W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
Updated motherboard
MSI A78M-E35 V2 Micro ATX FM2+ Motherboard
 
Solution
First, check power switch on the motherboard, the power switch header/connector from the case must be correctly installed based on the instruction manual. All motherboard manuals tells people what to do.
Did you wear an anti-static wrist strap? If everything is installed correctly, one of the components could be fried by static electricity on your body.
If these two are not the issues, try to disassemble everything and carefully put everything back again.

No, do you think that could be the problem? Everything turns on even the LED for the computer and disc drives will function and everything.

Well I have unplugged and replugged in the all the power cords 5 or so times I'd say, and reassembled it a couple of times, I did not wear an anti static wristband, how could I tell if one of the pieces are fried? I I have tried using different ram already.
