PC hardware: New Motherboard Problem - Please help!
New Motherboard Problem - Please help!
by Murxidon - 1/5/06 8:07 AMI recently bought an MSI K8MM-V Motherboard.
I replaced my old motherboard and fitted wires and hardware etc. When I boot up the PC it doesn't detect the moniter, I have tried using a different moniter and a Geforce video card, but nothing helps. The moniter does work though.
I think I have plugged everything in correctly, any help would be great!
Please help.
(NT) I don't hear a POST beep either...

New mobo in old case gives rise to all kinds of potential problems, [shorts due to left over hex standoffs etc]. Why not remove the mobo from the case, set it up on a big sheet of cardboard and build it up one step at a time. The mobo with nothing plugged in except the power supply connectors [no CPU/HSF, memory, video, mouse keyboard should power up if one simply uses a small slot screwdriver to momentarily short the power on mobo pins together. Can't get that far, anything more is a waste of time.
Use that tried-and-true technique

Not enough info.
