Hi,

I recently have bought some new components to build a new computer
(rescuing a hard drive, CD-RW, DVD-RW, sound and graphics cards from an
old computer)

My problem is I have put it all together and the computer wont boot.
All the case fans and CPU fan are going, the LEDs light up (power full
and the HDD faintly) But there is no video signal out. I have also
noticed that the DVD drive powers up but the CD drive does not (tried
swapping the power plugs around) and I am now at a loss and need some
advice. I have only ever built one system up before but that was
relatively simple compared to this.

The components are an Asus P5P 800 PE motherboard, Intel Pentium D 930,
Maxtor 120GB HDD Drive and a 48oW PSU


Many Thanks
Rich.


remove all but the basics............then try start up.

if it fires up add 1 bit at a time..........until you find the culprit.
