No POST, No BIOS, No Beeps...
I just completed my first computer build (as far as putting everything in the case is concerned). When I tried to boot for the first time, I get absolutely nothing. However, the Mobo does have a green LED lit, the Case lights turn on, and all the fans are running - but nothing shows on my screen.
Like I said, this is a computer that I built and it currently has no OS installed. I could be wrong but I thought I had to make initial adjustments to the BIOS and stuff prior to booting with the XP disk.......
I cannot even get the CD Rom to open in the first place - so there has to be something wrong. I tried re-seating the RAM and Video Card. But it still does nothing more than turn on a green LED, run my fans, and run the lights on the case.
Any thoughts on this one?
