PC is brand new.

- Intel i7 4790k
- asus sabertooth z97 mark 1
- Kingston HyperX Fury blue 2x 8GB
- Asus GTX 980Ti (I removed it)
- samsung 850 evo ssd 250 gb
- WD HDD 3 tb
- seasonic 750w bronze
- case Aerocool Xpredator-X3 Devil Red

The thing is that I still don't have a monitor so I'm using a sony led meanwhile. the pc is not showing any signal so I can't enter to the bios to configure it and install windows, I double checked everything and was trying to get signal from hdmi (motherboard) to hdmi (led tv) with no results at all.

Things I have already tried:

- Removing 1 ram unit.
- checking the correct instalation of every part.
- the case fans are working and so are the motherboard's.
- fyi: the m/b has a green led around the power led.
- it has a fixed red led in the ram OK! indicator.
- Already pressed the ram OK! button.

Please help me!

It was crazy, but I had to use a dvi dual link adapter to vga so the pc won't crash with the blue screen issue after installing the gpu drivers. Everything is working now!

When using a compatible TV as a PC monitor, you usually have to go into the TV's menu system and select the appropriate input source for the video signal. On my Sony TV, on the remote you press 'Menu' and then select "External Inputs'.

On the next menu, if connected via HDMI, I select 'AV4', or 'AV5' (because my telly has two HDMI inputs).
If connected via VGA cable I select 'PC' on the external inputs menu.

I followed some advices already posted here and it was the ram, I had to pull them with some serious strength so they could fit properly. But now I have this problem, every time I install the asus gtx 980ti display drivers, the pc throws me a blue screen and I have to enter to safe mode so I can remove the driver, because it won't let me start windows. (Meanwhile, I have this blue dots all over the screen (caused by the gpu) So, what do I do?
