Best to build the bare essentials first, to get a POST sanity check...

What mainboard have you swapped to?

Current PC spec. in my profile.
Can I realistically call myself a gamer, if I only play ONE, twenty year old game...?

Did you test boot it, before you built in into the case?

WHY NOT...?!

Build minimal, outside the case, as a sanity check...

To get a BIOS to update your new 'board, d/l it onto a USB drive - with your old rig, so you can update it via the BIOS, as part of said sanity check.
