hi i got a new mobo and processor, do you need a graphics card? its got an agp slot but i havent put anythink in, there is also no ddr memory, could this make the computer screen say, "no signal detected" there is no flashing of the power light now tho nor a clicking sound just the lack of display, also the cd/dvd drives have unlocked themselves,
i take it that you have never built a computer before. well its time to learn cos im gonna go all technical on you now.:p
firstly lets get round the problem of the 'no signal' showing up on your PC.
ask yourself these questions. does the motherboard have built in graphics? if the answers no you need a graphics card 1st and foremost. you can get these in most component stores for about £50 for a bog standard one upto £200-300 for an upmarket mean nvidea or radeon card.
if on the other hand you have got built in graphics have you actually connected the monitor to the PC using the right cable and have you plugged it into the right socket. Again very common error.
secondly never ever forget to put the memory in. this should be one of the first components that you put onto your motherboard after you have assembled your CPU and heatsink.
regarding the power light - what is its status. is it permanently on or off? some computers dont have flashing power lights. its usually the hard drive activity light that has a tendancy to flash and flicker but again that depends on the type of case you have. some dont have any status lights.
however if yours has status lights please make sure you have assembled the connections as detailed in your motherboard documentation..:-|
another thing to bear in mind is that not all motherboard manufacturers use the same BIOS software. they use either PHOENIX or AMI. The BIOS beeps you describe could be lack of DDR or lack of a video card. without knowing your exact BIOS manufacturer i cannot say.
please also elaborate on the bit where you claim that the cd/dvd drives have unlocked themselves. how?
