I finished building my PC recently. when I turn on the monitor when the computer isn’t on, there’s obviously no signal and I see the bouncing logo, but when the computer is on, it says that there is no signal, and that my monitor is going into standby mode, and the display turns off. my gpu seems to be working fine, and I reseated my ram. What should I do?
How would I be able to hear the beeps? I can’t exactly see an error code since I have no display
If you can’t hear anything does your motherboard have a display? Did it come with a little speaker? Look in your motherboards manual for the best way to get error signals.
Did you give your computer at least 5 min powered on though?
No i didn’t, but my monitor shuts off every time it’s connected to my computer so I can’t wait that long
Your monitor doesn’t matter just let the computer run for a few minutes then turn the monitor back on
Does the motherboard have any LEDs? If you don’t have a motherboard speaker, the motherboard sometimes shows LEDs to display an error code.
It does. I notice that the CPU light turns on briefly but turns off. Is that bad?
You should lookup your motherboard manual or something to see what the LEDs mean. From what you say here, it sounds like the POST might be failing due to the CPU. Maybe try reinserting the CPU.
It could also be that it posts but then it should display and let you get into the bios. So not sure. It’s hard to diagnose without more info.
