Hey there,
After a couple of years IT experience I finally decided to assemble my own pc. Bought all components and put them together. But when I start up only the fans start to run and no screen appears. This is what I already tried:
- Only plugged in the memory, videocard and CPU, no screen
- Took out memory and started up; peeeeep, peep, peep.
- Tried one as well as two memory banks, still no screen.
- Tried two other videocards, no succes
- Tested videocard on different pc, worked fine.
- Took fan off the CPU and checked if it heated up, it did.
- Connected the monitor to a different pc, worked fine.
- Tried resetting the CMOS a couple of times but no changes.
- The mobo doesn't touch the case
- Had memory checked at shop, the're fine
My configuration is :
Asus P4C800 Deluxe Motherboard
Intel Pentium 4 / 2.4 GHz 800 MHz FSB
Leadtek Winfast A250 LE 64MB NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti
MBO E-Tron 795 17” Monitor
2 x 512 DDR-DIMM TwinMOS PC3200 (CL2.5) P/N: M2S9J16AJAWB9F0811B-T
[email protected] MidiTowerCase, Jou Jye Electronic Co Ltd Model JJ-300PP (12V) 300W Max
1 x Maxtor 120GB 7200RPM
I 'm planning to buy a 480 Watt power supply as I think 300 isn't enough. I have read several other post about this. Further I am looking for another memory to try (tnx for the tip Speedo)
Maybe you also have an idea what could be the cause, then I really would like to know.
Regards,
Tammo
