I have set this up as a different topic but it is a continuation of the topic " New PC - Lights on, no fans". Hopefully this is a better description of the present situation.
I am building a machine at present and have everything put together but have hit a stumbling block. I have power going to the motherboard, fans are spinning, hard disks spinning. POST commences but no light on the floppy drive. Also, I am getting nothing on the monitor. I have yet to install an OS but should at least get a BIOS screen. I have tried changing the floppy drive and its ribbon cable and have tried another monitor but no luck. I am going to try a different graphics card later to see if that is the problem. I have reset the CMOS also but to no avail.
Suggestions appreciated.
