As the title says, i bought a new mobo, CPU and ram but I do not get a display from either the onboard graphics or my GPU. The gpu does spin and the system seems to be starting up fine, there is just no display at all.

My specs (PSU and gpu all working well prior to replacing the processor, mobo and ram)
AMD Radeon HD 7850
i5 4460
650w PSU
2x4gb ram
Mobo MSI b85M-E45

I tried:
- New monitor
- New cables, HDMI and different settings on the monitor
- Unplugging 1 ram, unplugging both and switching them around in different slots
- Unplugging the GPU, USB, system fan etc
- Isolating the motherboard by putting it in a cardboard box and booting from there


My keyboard also does not work anymore, and I have no way to access the bios. I have plugged in the 4-point connector and the bigger one (24 i think?).

Thanks in advance :)

Actually it seems to only be an issue with my keyboard, however the LED on my mouse lights up when plugged in. No way to tell if it actually is working though.

Did you end up getting this to work? You could try a non-USB keyboard if you have one around, I keep an old one around since a long time ago USB didn't like to work all the time.
