I was hoping this would go off without a hitch but don't we all. Anyways here is a list of hardware I slapped together of the last few days...
Antec 900 case
MSI 870A-G54 Mobo
Antec 650w power supply
Deskstar 1TB internal HD
LiteOn internal DVD drive
AMD Phenom Dual Core CPU
Radeon HD 5670 graphics card
Corsair membory cards 2*2 Gb
The powerup showed that the fans run, and cpu and graphics card fans as well. There is nothing on the monitor, and the DVD player only opens when the data cable (39 pins?) isn't hooked up. Any advice on things to check and look for? Also, what exactly should I be seeing on the monitor in the absence of a OS? Thanks, I appreciate any responses. -Tom
