I have just bought a new PC. Mobo, CPU, ram, gfx card, HDD and PSU. Ive built it. but when i turn it on then the screen is just blank. everything is on, fans are turning, mobo lights are on but the screen is blank. i tried another screen and the onboard gfx card but still the same. Also I cant turn it off holding the power button, i have to pull the plug to turn off. Please help ?

Thanks

Most likely cause of that issue is that the power supply's 4-pin or 8-pin ATX12V/EPS12V connector isn't plugged into the motherboard.
