Hi Guys.
I've built a PC with brand new parts (except VGA):
i3 6300;
2x8 GB DDR4 Corsair 3200MHz;
ASUS Z170-BR/PLUS;
HD 7770;
XFX 500W XT;
850 EVO 250GB;
1TB Seagate;
AeroCool Aero 500;
It started the machine first time with some black screen with the American Megatrens logo and some of the parts I've put in written on. I had to shut it off. Later in the day, I only conected it trought the PSU and the FANs turned on. But I'm not had a monitor, so someone told me that I could put the HDMI to my notebook to see if the screen will became a monitor. So I did. I put one end of the HDMI cable to my HD 7770 and the another end to my notebook. I tried to turn it ON. Didn't work! (I tought: It does not pass eletricity (most of it), only video/audio information. What possible could go wrong?)
After that, I remove the PSU from the tower and did the "paper clip test" in the black and green wire of the motherboard feeder of the PSU and it FAN was OK. After that, I switched the SATA cable positions to the slot 1 and 2 (I was on 3 and 4), removed the VGA, re-build the CPU, changed the USB cable positions (USB 3.0 was on the 2.0 slot), changed memory positions and with only one, removed the hard drives, reconect fron panel conectors... Nothing worked.
I've lost my hope and left it the tower with a technician. Do you think that HDMI attempt with my notebook screw up something? If yes, will I be a bad character if I ask to a replacement part with the store?
What to you guys think? Sorry for my english.
Thanks!
