    Hey,
    I just finished building my new pc so naturally I powered it on...
    The pc seems to be powered fine (all fans working,lights etc) but im not getting any display signal at all,

    I hear a beep after ~4 secs of powering on and then another after around 10secs but not more beeps after that.

    I tried only having one stick of ram in and i tried reconnecting the Graphics card but still the same story


    my rig I just built is:

    -Nvidia Gtx 295
    -Intel i7-965 Extreme
    -Asus P6T v2 Deluxe
    -3x2gb Corsair Dominator DDR3 1600Mhz
    -Corsair 1kW PSU
    -Western Digital VelociRaptor 150GB
    -Western Digital Caviar GreenPower 1TB
    -LG DVD±RW burner, GGC-H20L,

    Any help would be great.

    Thanks :)

    Disconnect everything from the board. Insert single RAM module in correct slot. Connect the GFX card to mobo and then connect PSU to mobo both 24-pin and 8/4-pin. Connect PSU to GFX card. Short the power +/- header pins and see what you get.

    Try single different RAM modules in different slots - You were using the correct three slots previously?


    Had you tested the system before putting it into the case?

    should be something in your mobo manual about recovery...possibley power off, hold clear CMOS then power on iirc but check to be sure.

    failing that, could be a dodgy connection cable to the board.

    965 is nice tho...expensive but nice all the same /jealous

    Did you plug in any extra power connectors that the motherboard and graphics card needs? If two on the GC then make sure they are from different rails on the PSU.
