Hello everyone on Tom's hardware,
I didn't know where to ask this question so i did it here. I have recently started building my own pc (specs below). But I ran out of my budget for the pc so i bought a * Dell case for it all to happen in. The monitor I got from a colleague of my dad (hp l1950) and all the other parts i bought myself. Right now I'm sort of finished building, but I've encountered one problem. When I try to connect the pc to the monitor using VGA it doesn't respond. I've tried HDMI on my laptop, but it doesn't respond either. The monitor itself gives this error: no VGA output.
What should I do? I first found out that one of the psu connectors wasn't connected to the JPWR 2 in the motherboard, but it didn't help. I will first try to leave some pictures here, contact a friend and I will try the pc again on the tv downstairs with HDMI. But if any of you guys have an answer that would be very helpful. Thanks!

BTW a friend told me that it is because he ports on the back aren't powered. Is this true? And how can I fix it?
