F2-A85-V Pro - No Signal input

[davhall_uk]

I have have a problem with a new build I have started. Every since I put it together I have got a No Signal input screen on my monitor / nothing when connected via HDMI to my Sony TV.

Parts are:

F2-A85-V Pro (New)
AMD Athlon II X4 750k
GC X11 Advanced X Station Case
2 x Crucial 4GB DDR3
800w (230v) power Supply

I've had the board and CPU sent away as I thought this was the issue but it was tested and passed which leaves me confused.

This board has a built in graphics card.

At the moment I only have VGA connected to monitor, Both PSU cables connected 8 pin 24 pin, 1 stick on DDR3 in A2 slot (as recommended) and one additional fan. I also have the front I/0 connectors all connected.

The board gets power and both heat sink fan and additional fan power on and stay strong. Powers supply should be adequate anyway, I get a start up flash of a RED light on the DRAM LED this happens which either stick and reading more into this the lights stays red when there is a problem and off when there is not so I'm sure it's an initial check. When I boot with no RAM I get a steady Red light.

I have no built in speakers for a beep test and do not get a POST beep on start up obviously.

So I know the m/board works and something I have is stopping it from displaying. The monitor and cable both work as I've mirrored this using a netbook. However when i connect the Netbook to the monitor and go into the BIOS it again shows no signal input i'm not sure if this is a limitation of connecting though the netbook with a VGA cable as the drivers needed may be installed on windows or it's with the really old monitor (Video7 L19WA http://www.cnet.com/products/v7-l19wa-lcd-monitor-19/specs/). Looking too much into it maybe. The end goal is to get it working with my Sony LCD TV and this does not show post either just a black screen.

I've looked at numerous threads regarding this but with no luck.

I think it can be the RAM or PSU but both seem like they work well.

Any help would be most apprciated.

Thanks

I have some bad news I'm afraid; that motherboard does not have inbuilt graphics.

Integrated graphics these days are integrated onto the CPU die itself, as opposed to being on the motherboard like they used to be. The bad news is that you have a CPU with the integrated graphics disabled. The chip you have is basically one of the APUs that AMD makes that has had the integrated graphics disabled. You're either going to need a different CPU (one of the APUs compatible with that board), or a discrete graphics card.

You need a graphics card.

Thanks Guys, I'll get one ordered. I thought that the APU was compatible with this board. Should have looked into it more!!

You did one thing wrong the processor you have is an CPU not an APU.
an APU has graphics an CPU not
