Since it's the VGA light that's popping up, are you sure you have your display cable in the GPU? Are you sure the power cables are properly fitted? The orange light, on some motherboards, might just be for visuals. If possible, send a photo of the build, more preferably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have said here. Users with your MOBO have reported a BIOS update via USB did the trick for them. They had no signal. I'd defo check and download a bios to USB. Bit of a tech guy, converted to PC's when consoles did not entertain me enough, the last console being an Xbox, was fun with Halo multi-play though. But the want to discover, to test, to learn more about computers drove me to levels I had never known... Some GPU's I have had, 8800GTS 384MB, 7800GT, GEFORCE 4 MX440, 250GTS, 770 GTX, 1650 GTX, RTX 3050 Plus many other GPU's over the years... The respect I have for LMG is massive like a black hole, sucking in all the knowledge, I watch their awesome video's, their knowledge is like that of a God. Seriously some say they are number 1 in the whole wide world. LMG is like the INTEL fabrication plant. Beaming with technology goodness... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we knew make of motherboard as there are various makes B450 model. We'll try and help you get this RIG loaded. Is it an MSI B450 TOMAHAWK? What CPU compound are you using?

Posted April 29, 2023 1 minute ago, Panda966 said: Im not sure exactly and why dose the CPU compound matter at all? Okay. Well sometimes it can be the compound, I've had CPU's not booting due to compound being old and dry. Even when the CPU has been pasted it has done a no signal, memory can cause it too and GPU's. How many sticks of RAM is there? Just try one in different slots and try booting. These are things you can try.

Has your motherboard got onboard GPU? If so take out GPU and plug monitor in to motherboard GPU. Just for test.

Sometimes when your MOBO has onboard graphics and you plug a GPU onto it, it can be set in BIOS to boot with onboard still and not the GPU. Check that on your RIG.

Posted April 29, 2023 6 minutes ago, Panda966 said: No but I have taken the battery out What I'd do in your scenario is take everything out of CASE and setup out of case, sometimes that can help. Ideally if you had spare CPU, RAM, etc you could then find out what is going on but you haven't and I know these things are a downer, this is where computing tests your mind. Sometimes it is one part what is faulty like PSU, MOBO, RAM, GPU, etc. Sometimes it can be a BIOS setting, sometimes it can actually be CPU COMPOUND that just needs reapplying, once I had an AMD RIG and I had to keep re-pasting CPU because the COMPOUND wasn't the best and then BAM!!!! it booted! after about 7 times of reapplying, I buzzed out! and set it up for a SESH.

MOBO's usually don't have integrated GPU.. unless it's a laptop.. if a "MOBO" has hdmi or displayport ports, it's for the CPU integrated iGPU.. that he don't have.. so it won't work. @Panda966 i see it's a first build but that's ok.. cable seems installed. check that PCIE plugs are properly connected on the PSU side. i see no frontpanel buttons are connected. do you start it with shorting the two left top pins on the frontpanel connector pin cluster?
