No signal !

does your board hooked to speaker so you can hear any beep

somehow i suspect the ram
So did I in the beginning and asked for the specs but never got an answer. But if the parts are shipped as build-your-own PC I assume that the RAM is OK, but......

yeah, the OP got some where
since he didn't fill the specs and put some pics, i guess we'll leave it for a while
 
If it's a regular bog-standard monitor, it'll have either touch captive buttons or physical buttons to activate the on-screen display. The on/off switch should also be one of those buttons, afaik there's never been any monitor that needs to be shut off in software. They all have on/off buttons. You need to find the buttons to activate the OSD and change the input setting to match the port you're using. Again, pictures would be helpful, along with the model name of the monitor.
Think OP is talking about turning off the PC, not the monitor.
 
We're not saying the cables are faulty, just incorrect for your use on that system.
What works on hers may not work on the new system.
Post pics of connections and cables if you can.
I've attached the pictures you require.

Yes, I am talking about computer not monitor. Sorry about that.

I'm sorry about that. I've sent all the specs, I've sent them to Tom699 post.

No worries, I understood what you meant okay.

I'm sorry about that. I've sent all the specs, I've sent them to Tom699 post.
So those are just the specs for your CPU and motherboard - @mstenholm is interested about the rest of your components: model numbers for RAM, storage, PSU, etc.

No you didn’t. The RAM was blank!

I just noticed that there is corrosion on both the PSU and the MB picture. Return it.
 
Sounds to me that the motherboard bios may not be set for integrated graphics and is defaulting to the PCI-E slot.
 
I'm guessing the BIOS on the motherboard probably needs to be updated to support the 3200G. See if there is a sticker on the motherboard that lists the current BIOS version, it might even be listed on the box the motherboard came in.

That's his monitor, and it isn't corrosion it's dust(I'm guessing smoker).

Ups. Brown dust.
 
Monitor: Avanhard XM19A.

WTF is that?

I'm going out on a limb. Your AMD PC is not compatible with the wam-bam monitor you appear to have found in a skip.

Did I miss the post where OP said that wife's monitor didn’t work either?

No, you didn't. It works with the wife's PC but we dont know anything about it.

The monitor is a relic, I can't locate an active website - my browser sends me back to a Virgin Media search page. We dont know if OP's neighbour used an HDMI connection. We can assume the up to date PC build isn't compatible with the aforementioned monitor. The OP states the PC did not work with the neighbours PC, but the monitor did. That only infers the neighbours PC is compatible with said, Avanhard monitor. It's a dead brand. We don't know the specs of his neighbours PC either (it works with his monitor).

@stumpyxxx - you still haven't supplied an internal pic of the mobo (plan view).

To be fair - this looks like a compatibility issue, or at worst, the PC is borked. RMA.

He didn't say the monitor worked with his wife's PC, he said his wife's monitor didn't work with his PC.

Not that it matters, the monitor can be ancient, that isn't a reason it shouldn't work.

That's why I'm still betting on a BIOS issue. The A320 is an older board, and I'm guessing it didn't ship with a BIOS that supports 3rd Gen CPUs.

H'i newtekie1, here is a link to the exact motherboard bundle I have:

If its a BIOS issue, how can I update it when it won't show on the monitor?
 
H'i newtekie1, here is a link to the exact motherboard bundle I have:
CCL 4.0GHz AMD Quad Core Ryzen 3 3200G Bundle - Gigabyte A320M-S2H Mothe...

That link doesn't work, it only works for your ebay account because it is a link to your order. I did find this, which I assume is the same bundle you bought.


It says it comes assembled and tested, but says it is unopened. Did the CPU and RAM come assembled, or did you have to put the CPU in the motherboard?

If its a BIOS issue, how can I update it when it won't show on the monitor?

You will have to find an older processor to sue to boot the computer and update the BIOS.

However, if it's true that they assembled the board CPU and RAM and tested it before shipping it to you, it could be some other issue. Of course, it's an ebay seller, so its 50/50 they actually tested it before shipping it.

Do you have another power supply you can test the system with?
 
newtekie1, I think is not this item
item id in his link is 113810109083, I got it here

RAM is not included in bundle!

So, maybe OP does not have the RAM, computer does not beep because no beeper is connected??

Edit: Stumpy, please take a picture of motherboard, showing memory slots.

It did arrive unopened. The CPU was already assembled, but there wasn't any RAM, I had to supply and fit that myself. which I did with two 4GB DDR4 PC4 2133p computer memory module P/N: 798033-001. Unfortunately, I don't have access to another power supply to test, although the fans run, dvd opens and shuts, and the on/off light works.

Hello, again Tom.699,
Your right there was no RAM. I had to supply and fit myself with two 4GB DDR4 PC4 2133p computer memory module P/N: 798033-001. and I don't think a beeper came with the motherboard or the case. If you still want pics of memory slots I will send them.
 
Yes, if not too much trouble please post pictures of motherboard.
 
H'i blobster21, If it is a BIOS issue, is there any way I can update it when it won't even show on the monitor?

Resetting the bios is as simple as removing the CR2032 battery from its socket during 30sec and putting it back into place.

The bios should be reset to factory default values, including the "initial display output" set to Integrated Graphic Device, as Tatty-One mentioned before.
 
So, what we know so far:

1. CPU - Ryzen 3 3200G
2. Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-A320M-S2H-rev-1
3. Case - CIT 1016 Gloss black micro ATX PC computer
4. PSU - 500W that came with the case
5. No discrete video card
6. RAM - 2x 4GB DDR4 PC4 2133p (P/N: 798033-001)
7. Monitor - Avanhard XM19A, has one D-Sub (VGA) and 1 DVI port.
8. Connected with D-SUB (VGA) cable
9. On power on fans are spinning, lights turn on, DVD drive opens/closes. Nothing on monitor!
10. Monitor works fine with OP wife's computer.
11. Monitor works fine with a neighbours computer. We don't know which connector was used!
12. OP computer connected to a naighbours monitor behaves the same as with his monitor - no signal. Again we don't know what cable (VGA?)

Assuming VGA cable was used with naighbours and wife's computer it would mean that cable is ok.
Still can be checked with DVI if OP has or can borrow a cable.

RAM is not on compatibility list and we know Ryzen is picky about memory. Maybe it is a problem.

Seems there is no speaker/beeper in the case, hard to tell from case info I found (i.e., no info about that detail).
Stumpy can you double check if there is no speaker on the front of the case (from inside) and if any cable in the bunch has speaker written on connector?

Maybe it is a BIOS issue. Don't know if it is possible that it may be set to use discrete graphic instead of on-board but there is none?

You can do as blobster said or use CLR_CMOS jumper on motherboard.
If you want to use CLR_CMOS turn off computer, unplug it from the wall outlet and connect two pins marked below with metal object for few seconds.

Thank you.
What is this brownish-orange stuff above M2 connector, on right site Serial SATA writing? it not supposed to be there.
Can you clean it. It may be shorting paths under it.

Did you try resetting CMOS?

Memory looks weird, I'm not sure if I'm seeing right but it looks like they are different. Looks like right one does not have a chip on top and others are shifted.
Are you sure they are identical? Is it just picture and I'm seeing things?

Try removing right DIMM and power on computer with just one. What happens? If still no signal try remove that one and put another one. Still nothing try second memory slot.
