Okay I think I got it all connected....

Things plugged into the PSU: Cpu1, Motherboard, VGA1 & 2 (both plugged into GFX Card), Sata 1 (My SSD), all wires from the case except case fans (I think I have them in right).
Cooler plugged into motherboard and on top of CPU, running fine. GFX card is not running. Red light on motherboard still on for the CPU. It is in the same condition as before.
Monitor plugged into wall and into GFX card.
I moved the GFX card twice on the board. Once in the original position that I always used (it did not work), and once on the far end, it is still not working.

Any advice?

What if I plug monitor into integrated on motherboard? Would this help me find something out?

Yes, thats your next step. Take the gfx card out, and hook the monitor into your mobo.

also, just double check your CPU cooler is correctly installed and not loose.

after this, someone else with more knowledge than me should hopefully be able to help. I would post this thread in misc computer help subforum as well.

Yeah the integrated isn't working either. So it isn't getting the cpu going?

Try resetting your Bios.




Another simple thing to try, Is replace the Cmos battery on the motherboard. Sometimes if the battery is dead, It can cause issues booting up.

Is it possible that the battery died? I mean, I did run the music a lot. Often while i was reading for hours or sleeping... But... It is only 5-8 months old =/. These are nice things I could try... I don't think the issue is the bios as it would start it up and just tell me it isn't running properly instead of not working altogether, at least from my understanding. Once I get my next pay check I could explore further...

Sigh, does your motherboard have a Q-code reader aka something that gives you 2 Digits/numbers on the board?

You really are being vague and you need to listen to what Rikuo posted.

It actually can. Depending on the motherboard, A non working cmos battery can cause all sorts of weird shit to happen. And there are reports of his mobo not booting when the battery dies.

It doesnt, It just has 3 Led lights. One for CPU failure, One for ram & another for mobo

Lee don't make me bitch slap you.
without a battery it should still dish out a bios beep code for no ram inserted.
if hes not getting that then mobo is toast.

go look at dudes other thread I went though all this already.


/edit
Yeah no bios beep error's
so either not enough power or bad mobo/cpu.
