Problem:
I've done my best to ensure everything is intalled correctly, and secure. I had a few questions along the way, which I asked and was answered by a friend who has assembled computers before.
When I power up, the PSU starts, PSU fan runs, case fan runs, CPU fan runs, don't know if the video card fan runs i cant see it very well, LED on motherboard is lit, and power LED on front of case is lit. Everything sounds like it is running OK, but nothing shows up on screen and no BIOS beeps are heard like the motherboard manual promised.
Any ideas?
