I recently got a new motherboard, the msi b150 gaming m3. I plug everything in and there was no video signal. The motherboard has 3 debug lights that tell you what component has failed however none came on.
Will these debug lights turn on if my CPU won't display or just if it is totally shot?

Also, how should I go about diagnosing the problem? I connected speakers and there were no beeps.

System specs:
Msi b150 gaming m3
I5 6500
8gb Gskill NT series
600w evga psu
 
Try and do a clear cmos,maybe it was used with a dedicated gpu and is the bios still trying that option although it shouldn't. Guessing this is all used parts.

You didn't forget the 8pin power for the cpu?
So sorry for the late reply!!
8pin is plugged in and secure.
All used parts but in good condition.
I have reset the cmos through the jumper and battery.
 
Can only guess that either motherboard or cpu isn't working properly.

You have no dedicated gpu to test with i assume?
I have a fury x, but in testing it made no difference that I used it or not.
I don't believe it could be the motherboard as I have gotten the same symptoms on a different board.
I know someone who might let me borrow a cpu to test with in the next couple of days.
