Does it at least post? And if so do you have this problem in safe Mode? and if you do not have the problem in safe mode then lower your resolution and refresh rate and try again on a normal boot.

 

[bacardi9966]

nothing shows on my LCD....-_- cant even acess BIOS

while startup no beeping..=[

Could be bad memory. Try different sticks or swap them. Try one at a time if applicable.

 

[bacardi9966]

its not the ram

 

[GJSNeptune]

Okay. Have you looked at the CPU? Does it smell or look burnt?

 

[d44ve]

it would help if we knew your system specs too

 

[GJSNeptune]

Try to give us more than one short sentence.

 

[bacardi9966]

umm no it doesnt look or smelt burnt.

and my system specs are::

Pentium D 2.8Ghz
Asrock 775Dual-VSTA mobo
2GB PNY DDR2 PC5300 Ram
EVGA 8600GT 256MB GPU
500WATT Psu
160GB WD caviar SE HD

I have the same board, CPU, and hard drive. Unless you somehow know for sure it's not the memory, please look into it. I had a lot of memory problems with mine where a few sticks would hang the BIOS or not initialize it at all.

Did you plug in the 20/24 pin connector to the motherboard from the PSU?
Did you also plug in the 4 pin power connector on the motherboard from the PSU?

Many people forget the 4 pin connector and if you dont do that than only your fans will spin and nothing else will happen

 

[bacardi9966]

i know for a fact that its not the ram causing this problem

 

[GJSNeptune]

We don't. Please explain why. Did you even OC the CPU? Do you run high temps? Your system should shut down if the CPU gets too hot.

 

[bacardi9966]

never OC'd the cpu before. computer turns on, no beeping sounds, no display =[

 

[GJSNeptune]

Then it's likely not the CPU. If you're so sure it's not your memory, please explain why you know it's not. (This is the second time I've asked).

 

[DRDNA]

check your monitor cable.

 

[bacardi9966]

lol i checked that first.

 

[bruins004]

Dude did you even look at this.

Check this:
Did you plug in the 20/24 pin connector to the motherboard from the PSU?
Did you also plug in the 4 pin power connector on the motherboard from the PSU?

Many people forget the 4 pin connector and if you dont do that than only your fans will spin and nothing else will happen

I HAVE HAD AND SEEN THIS ISSUE BEFORE

 

[bacardi9966]

yes the 4pin has been in the whole time from the start. i would never forget that. =[

i dont think im ever going to overcome this problem

 

[d44ve]

Have you re-wobbulated the wobbulater recently? It could be that.....

j/k


Seriously though, how do you know its not the ram?

 

[GJSNeptune]

I'm saying it's the memory until you tell me why it isn't. Or are you ignoring/blocking my posts?

 

[DRDNA]

are you able to try a different Monitor all together?

 

[bacardi9966]

yea done that.

same.
