Someone gave me a eMachines T9532. It has a AMD 64 3500+ Processor, 1 GB of DDR RAM (I think it got upgraded), a fax modem, a NVidia GeForce 6100 GPU (There is no dedicated graphics card so it must be integrated), a DVD drive, and no hard drive. One I turn it on, the fans spin up, but does not display anything on the screen (Yes I had check the cables). The HD indicated light stays solid blue, and the ring around the power button flashes orange. But the ring flashes whenever the light on the DVD player blinks. I have tried disconnecting the DVD player, remove all but 1 stick of RAM and tried different slots and modules, and remove the fax modem. Does anyone know what I can do next?

Make sure your monitor is connected to the graphics card, not the motherboard connectors. If that fails, remove the grapahics card and plug into the motherboard (some Pre-built computers dont like graphics cards) if that fails to work, Remove all non essential hardware (modem, dvd driver etc) then try boot again, if that fails try using VGA as I have seen DVI/hmdi/DP cause issues without drivers. Put the ram stick in Ram slot 0. double check that the motherboard and CPU power plugs are connected, also check your CPU heatsink is mounted correctly.
