this looks like a cheap setup for my friend to use at work. nothing shows up on the screen right after turning on, and even the CPU fan won't spin. Also, there is a problem with the cables. The power connector says "CPU_FAN" but only three pins are wired there instead of four. Even though I have a multimeter, can i check if the motherboard is working properly by testing it?
