I've taken a old ASUS built AMD A10 6700 and added another 8gb of ram (16gb total) - upgraded PSU to 600watts, kept the old (very small Mobo) and added in a monster XFX Radeon 570 4gb GPU.. everything is hooked up.
Real first "build" - what's happening is the screen has and did flash a couple different colors, the "Instert Boot Media" - Press enter etc looks Chinese sometimes.. when you first power on the unit. It asks if you'd like to go into BIOs ( try pressing F2/Del) it just sits at a black screen. Doesn't do anything after that..
So what am I missing? Old motherboard, need to upgrade? (Yes this would make sense but I would like to avoid possible.. if a new Mobo cures my issues then I will. Perhaps a new HDD? The old drive would be bad.. when it does Boot to the screen before bios it does say no "HDD" detached.. yet it's got power, disk is spinning etc
