TA970 Issues

[Khonsu]

Hey guys, I recently bought a biostar ta970 v5.3 and im having some issues. When I install all the components into the board and double check to make sure everything is seated correctly, and I turn the power on. the CPU fans come on, hard drives come on, video card fan spins but I get no video signal. I called biostar and they said it could be my power supply. Been trying to search around the internet for a answer. Does anyone have any idea what could be the issue? I double checked on there website and my cpu is supported by the board so also isn't a issue.

dead GPU? 

Broken cable?

Monitor not functioning properly?

GPU is working, as it draws power from the board. I have a separate board that im upgrading from and it works fine on that board. I have two different video cards, one of them when I put it in, the fan doesn't even spin up but does on the other board and works fine.

First thing: make sure the problem is within the PC. I, for one, have a dead HDMI input on one of my monitors; I've also had a dead cable in the past as well. Likewise, try a different video output - guess what, I have a defective (though not dead) HDMI exit on one of my cards as well.

 

Outside of that, does your mobo make any beep? That could help diagnose the problem.

Another thing I should add, when I turn the system on, I can't get it to shut off by the power switch. I have to shut it off via the switch on the power supply.

Currently my internal speaker is dead. I need to buy a new one so I can't get any beeps or anything from it. So ya thats making things a lot harder on me.

so i bought a new internal speaker, began to hook everything up. it started to post and such. i get it all hooked up and in the case, it was staying on for a good 20 mins, then everything just went poof. turned off but without shutting down. cpu cooler fan still spinning along with psu fans spinning. now it wont post at all
