Question Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3L not posting/no display

[Jakob Long]

Hi,

I have a Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3L motherboard, an Intel Pentium E2180, 305 watt PSU, and nvidia GeForce 8400 GS.
The system turns on, fans spin, but there is no display or post. I have tried clearing CMOS, I have tried different RAM sticks in different RAM slots, I have tried reseating the CPU, yet still no display.
The reason I am using such old hardware is because I had it all laying around and wanted to see if I could build a system from what I had laying around.

Any new ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Have you got an internal/case speaker? (they can emit beep codes when there's POST errors)

No I don't, I looked around for one but couldn't find anything

Are you sure everything is connected properly? CPU 12V 4pin connector?

Can you show a photo of your system with side panel removed? ( motherboard view )

Shame. 🙁 It might be worth investing in one as they're only cheap, and can be useful. (I'm not sure where in the world you are, but I got one for under £2 including delivery)
