Hi,
I am building my first PC. Everything went well during installation but when i booted the computer, there was no DVI signal and it stayed this way for several minutes until i turned it off. I then saw the sticky post in this forum and tried to troubleshoot. I went through steps 1-10 but it did not solve the problem.
I then tried breadboarding it by removing the motherboard from the case and placing it on my graphics card cardboard box. I tried to power on with one ram at a time but this time round the cpu went into a restart loop (CPU fan rev up to what seemed like maximum power for 3 seconds then revs down to a stop and then the whole cycle repeats). I also noticed that the lights on my motherboard, PSU and case LED all turned off and on during the restart loop.
I will troubleshoot again tomorrow. Any suggestions what could be the issue and what else I should try?
Thanks in advance for your help
