i was assembling my pc and double-checked everything was compatible. I installed all components but when i powered it up, there was no display. The fans were running and the rgb lights were on, yet nothing appeared on screen. i verified the cpu, gpu, and ram were connected properly, confirmed all cables were secure, and reset the cmos, but still faced no resolution. now i’m confused and unsure what to do next.
Review the provided guide for ASUS power LED information. The text suggests the document may not include your board’s support details, and a blinking LED could indicate it was omitted or is related to system recovery. Consider checking memory training if the device restarts frequently.
Otherwise, MB user guide: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LG...UM_WEB.pdf page 2-20 displays beep codes when a speaker is linked to the board for diagnostics.
It seems a DoA PC part might be present somewhere in this setup. Likely it's related to the CPU or RAM, but pinpointing it requires more testing. Following PineyCreek’s advice could help—check for error beep codes for quick insight. You might also isolate components on a test bench if available, manually identifying the faulty part. The motherboard error codes are the most reliable method. Have you explored using the built-in I-GPU instead? It can sometimes resolve graphical issues. I’m confident you should have an I-GPU, though I’m not sure. Good luck!
Search for four-pin internal speakers on platforms like Amazon—expect countless Chinese listings for bulk options. Follow the guidance in section 1-19 of the referenced manual to link properly. Remember it’s a four-pin connector using standard red and black wires.
