Motherboard may be DOA

[cougs100]

Hi i just recently bought a brand new Asus P8H61-MX with a new Intel G630 2.7 dual core 1155 cpu and 4gb Corsair ddr3 ram this week so after installing the new board and attaching the cpu , cooler & fan and attaching every cable to the board the computer will just turn on and off three times in a row but if i unhook my hdd it would boot up fine but will not post boot because i don;t see a display on my monitor any ideas? Thanks

did your case/mobo come with a small speaker

yes but no beeps and i don't see any lights on the front of the pc only the power button seems to work and i have the front panel connecters connected correctly according to the manual.

your mobo may be dead btw what psu do you have

what psu brand is that i have never heard of it it may be that your psu shorted out your mobo

If the psu was bad the motherboard board won't boot right?
