I'm fixing up an old pc and have bought a motherboard bundle (ASUS P5S800-VM/S Motherboard 3.06GHz 1GB RAM Bundle) – I already have everything else I need so this at £50 was good enough. I'm just giving the computer to my brother so it's more than enough.
Anyways I put in new shield, lined up the board and screwed it in no problems. I connected it up following the user guide and think I have everything right. (I have put the link to the user guide I used at the bottom of this post). When I press the power button (very happy it went as this was my first time) the fan starts on the CPU and that's about it. It sounds like the computer is running but there is no beeping that normally happens before boot and nothing on screen – it just saying no input (what my monitor says when not getting a signal).
Can anyone shed some light on what I might have done wrong here as I have no clue.
As always thanks for any help
