No display durring post with new mobo--
 

I was running the ECS K7S5A, I just got my new ECS L7S7A2 board, moved all my stuff over to it, but no display on post. I did all the typical stuff, disconnected everything, reset CMOS, reseated the card, etc, etc-- nothing.

Everything seems to be working fine other than the display, I even stuck an old PCI video card in there to see if it needed somethnig lowend but that didn't work either.

Anyone got any suggestions? :(

Any weird beeps? Onboard video by any chance? Does the initial BIOS post screen start up at all or absolutely no picture at all?

Get back to you on teh beeps, no display at all, no onboard video.

I am having the same problem. Fans power up, but nothing in the pci or agp slots work or power up though. Please help

Disconnect everything except Display card, RAM, front panel connectors, processor fan and front panel connectors from the motherboard and the power supply unit. See if the system completed POST to the point of the "You don't have an operating system" message.

If it doesn't post, check the motherboard manual diagrams and ensure you have the front panel connectors configured correctly. Turn them around to face the other way if you have. (Sometimes something as simple as a Power LED connector which is reversed can stop a machine from booting)

If it completes POST, add all the other stuff one by one, checking that the system completes POST after each. Add the hard drive last, and if you have more than one, add the system drive last.

Get back to us with results please.

Went through that, still no luck. i also swapped cpu's, video card, and ram. even tried a pci vid vard. no luck yet! thanks for tryin though, im still all ears!

Well, then, you either didn't go through it thoroughly enough, or the board or power supply unit is dead.

The checklist I provided is the rock-bottom basics, and if a motherboard won't POST, with only the basic components fitted, and it being confirmed that all the basic components are in working order, you should return the motherboard to the supplier.

Pull the ram and see if you get the no ram error beeps on boot up.

Tried the ram, no speaker hookup for mobo though, and i dont have my speakers here to hook up to the external jack. I have already rma'd board once to no avail. so im gonna just take it all apart for the seventth time and try again. out of 27 computers i have built i have never had one that didnt boot the first time, so my luck was destined to end some time, what beeter time than now! thanks for all the help guys!!!

Know the feeling!

I copped one a while back that gave me all sorts of frustration until I realised that the bloody thing was shipped with the 'Clear CMOS' jumper in the 'Clear' position! (Yours shouldn't be like that, as the fans wouldn't be working either. It'd just be dead!)

I've also had a few others from time to time which just wouldn't work or which wouldn't work reliably no matter what was tried with them and guess what!

Every bloody one of those had an SiS chipset!
