building a new pc - no display, no beeps


Building a new pc using this motherboard: GA-MA785GMT-UD2H


and a 500W power supply (1 x 20 pin & 1 x 4 pin connectors).


The CPU fan, hard drive and power supply all spin up but no display on the monitor and no beeps.


Have tried: taking out all of the memory and still no beeps


used a different power supply and still no display


I only have the Motherboard, memory, CPU, heat sink & fan & power supply connected.


Any ideas?


Do I have a faulty motherboard?



Answer



Things to check;



  • Make sure all the power connectors are connected and secure

  • If you can, try another monitor or a dedicated graphics card


The problem could be with CPU or motherboard. Did you use thermal paste when seating the heatsink?
