Hi, I just bought a bunch of parts from newegg.com and built a system for my parents. Its my first Intel build and third build my whole life, but I'm having issues after booting. The system is as follows:
HEC mATX Case w/585 Watt PS - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811121004
Foxconn M7VMX-K LGA 775 NVIDIA GeForce 7050 / nForce 610i Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813186138
Intel Pentium E2200 Allendale 2.2GHz 1MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor
G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231122
WD 320 GB HDD
and an old TDK 440N DVD-RW.
I already looked at Intel's website about systems not booting (http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-010254.htm) and tested all of their solutions and I still get no video when the PC boots.
edit: I am going to be using the on board video graphics as well. Right now I'm thinking that's the problem with the board and I may just need to go get a PCI-x graphics card. I also tried using two different monitors and got nothing. Another thing that might be worth mentioning is that it does not even beep when I turn it on; the fans spin, I hear the HDD spin, and the DVD and HDD lights on the front stay lit.
I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me some advice or tips on how to go on to fix this thing, I feel like I've taken it apart and rebuilt it a couple times already with the same results. I'm just hoping I didn't short anything while in the process :-( .
edit: I did have an anti-static bracelet on the whole time though, connected to the case.
If there's any other information you need to know, please let me know.
