I have just built my first ever pc. I have connected everything up and just plugged the power on. Everything seems to work fine as far as I can tell except there is no image on my screen. I've tried using HDMI and VGA. Please help!
 
Solution
what specs do you have.!? if you have a dedicated gpu use the inputs it provides to connect to monitor. if you dont have one and you are using the mobos inputs, you must have an cpu with intergrated graphics!
ASUS Z97-A Motherboard
Intel Core i5 4690K
2x Corsair 1866MHz 8GB (16GB total)
MSI GeForce 970 GTX Gamer Ed.
Samsung 500GB 840EVO SSD
Samsung DVDWBD
EVGA 750w SuperNOVA PSU
Corsair SPEC-03 Chassis
 
Thanks :)
Having a few teething problems so far like trying to install Bullguard makes it just completely freeze and stuff... I am wondering how stable the SSD is as I've heard the EVO 840 can sometimes be sketchy... hopefully that isn't the case and it will sort itself out. Keep getting machine_check_exception.
