Video Problem

[Coltonwmcc]

Hello all, so I have spent probably a good 8 hours googling and testing and trying and I am out of ideas here on what else to do.

 

So my computer won't give me a video display on original boot for me to get to bios... So I brought it down to my motherboard, CPU, RAM, PSU

 

Motherboard: MSI Z170A Tomahawk AC LGA 1151

CPU: Intel Core i7-7700k Kaby Lake Quad-Core 4.2 GHz LGA 1151

Ram: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2x8gb) 288-pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400

PSU: Corsair CX750M 750W ATX Power supply

 

So I have gone through the Toms Hardware List for not getting a video output. I am using the DVI Display port off of the motherboard, I had tried also to use my graphics card prior to taking it apart, but broke it down to bare basics here. I have the trouble speaker plugged in and my motherboard has EZ Debug lights. I have tried both sticks of ram in every slot and configuration, my motherboard is setup so that slot 2 and 4 is for dual channel but tried both sticks singular, I have ran through multiple online articles, other peoples problems, whether things were seated right, took a look at my CPU and the pins and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. So I took the ram out and got 3 beeps and the EZ Debug light came on for the ram, typical because it had no ram in it I wanted to see if it atleast worked. I plug it all in and no debug lights, every LED and Fan comes on and spins, no beeps, no sounds, nothing but I can't get a video display. I am really confused on what else I should be testing or overlooked. I figured I would break it down and run through Toms Hardware check list again, but can't get anything to happen still... so I am out of ideas. Any help would be appreciated,

 

thank you everyone,

 

Colton

Try to go into the Bios and turn the display output as the onboard

I can't get a video output on anything, would I just have to go through the manual and try and guess which keys to hit to try and navigate the bios and get to that?

Reset the CMOS - consult your mobo manual for this. If you can't find anything about it, look for a small hearing aid like battery, unplug your PSU and take it out for 30 seconds. Put it back in and try to boot again. If you used a GPU on your first boot, it may have disabled the iGPU in the BIOS

Alright I will try that, I did try to boot it originally with my GPU in.
