I have just built a new pc. I installed all the components and checked all cable connections. But when I turned it on the first time it did nothing, except the fans ran and several leds lit up. There was no video output and no beeps. Does anyone have a trusty checklist or troubleshooting guide that can help me figure out what is wrong? Thanks

  • Normally no beeps is memory/cpu Make sure they are seated right. Does the CPU fan spin?

  • Normally no beeps is a motherboard without an internal speaker installed :P

  • Does Dr. Debug light up? If so, the code can help you with troubleshooting. If not, and you've reset the CMOS, then probably part of the board isn't getting power. Apr 4, 2016 at 1:20

I'd try a few things.

  1. Disconnect everything
  2. Set a minimal system - one stick of ram, no optical drive, power. Doublecheck to ensure CPU power's plugged in. A lot of people forget.
  3. If it dosen't work, note down and check up the leds - many systems use those to indicate faults over beeps.

Comments indicate asrocks have a debug code system (I'm assuming its those little 8 segment displays) which may be of use as well.

  1. if it does, add components one at a time till failure.
