clear the CMOS. (remove battery 1 min / connect CLR_CMOS pins 1 min)

 

Also : quote me pls, otherwise I don't get a notification.

Its a used motherboard and I never powered it on before.

Its a Gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H and the only beep I get is 1 short beep.

1 beep means everything is fine.

boot without the dedicated GPU and use the integrated one.

Do what Poohl said but also remove the dedicated GPU. I've had instances where the on board video deactivates due to dedicated graphics being plugged in.

Don't see what you need? Check the Full List or *PM me, if I haven't made it I'll add it to the list.

*NOTE: I'll only add it to the list if the request is something I know I can do.
