First time build Powers on NO Display

Last response: in Systems
Share

I just put together my PC last night, and when it came time to power on, it seemed like everything was working just fine, CPU fan was on, front case fan turned on, and I added my laptop harddrive and I think that was even spinning, but when I hooked up to my TV via HDMI there was no display. So I tried a traditional monitor hookup and that didn't work either. The 4 pin on the mobo is connected, I triple checked the connections from the manual, but I guess I could still have made a mistake somewhere. Any ideas?

..Hi.. (forum rule, be polite) :pt1cable: 

Is everything new ?

Do you use onboard gpu ?

Did you try to hook up basic vga ?

Do you hear any beeps when computer power on (you should hear 1 beep if everything is fine and you have a pc speaker.)


Take out the memory and try to power on, if it does but your hear beeps, it means ram is the problem but it should be compatible.

Is everything new ? Yes I bought everything except my Harddrive, which I just removed from my laptop.

Do you use onboard gpu ? I believe so, here's the specs from the Processor:

Did you try to hook up basic vga ? Yes

Do you hear any beeps when computer power on (you should hear 1 beep if everything is fine and you have a pc speaker.) No beeps, I plugged in the PC speaker, then reversed it just to check I didn't plug it in backwards. I do hear noises when I hit the power button, but no significant beeping


Take out the memory and try to power on, if it does but your hear beeps, it means ram is the problem but it should be compatible. I will try this today after work and report back.

#1 Tested each memory stick individually, no beeps upon powering on. Cleaned the sticks still nothing.
#2 Pulled CMOS battery, and did the jumper thing, still nothing.
#3 pulled Mobo out of case and placed on cardboard, inspected Mobo could not see anything wrong.
#4 Checked for bent pins, nothing.
