MSI H110M with Intel Core i3-6100 3M Will not Post no video

[concon11711]

Hi everybody! I seem to be having some trouble with a PC i'm putting together. Specs:

Gigabyte H110M-S2H MoBo
Intel I3 6100 Cpu
Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 2400MHz Ram (2x4 gb sticks)
Crucial MX500 SSD (already with windows 10 x64 installed with all my files/games etc)
Corsair VS450 PSU
Msi GT-640
All in a HP case.

So all of these parts (apart from the case) are brand new, i assembled the rig with no issues at all, powered it on and was greeted with a message that said something like "please open BIOS and select a boot device", so i hit restart and all fans turn on, the PC sounds like it should be running just fine but.... "no signal detected", i cannot get an image on the monitor. i have tried re-seating every single component, i have tried every combination of installed RAM (stick A solo in slot A, stick B solo in slot A etc...) any other thoughts would be greatly appreciated, i'm a tad stuck here. Cheers!

Go into the BIOS and select MX500 as boot device.

What would be the best way to get into BIOS if there is nothing displayed on the monitor?

Try this...

Remove the GT 640, plug the monitor into the motherboard and boot the system again. If there's a display then hit F8 until the boot menu appears and select the SSD.


The SSD with Win10 and your files, was that from this system or a previous one? If from a previous one then you may need to reinstall Windows 10, motherboard drivers, etc.

Yes the SSD is from my old rig (an HP prebuild. 4gb 1600mhz ram, i3 2120 and an H61 Cupertino 2 MoBo)
i just tried removing the gt 640 and booting off the onboard graphics to no avail. I will bite the bullet and wipe the SSD and start up with my Win10 boot CD in the drive.

Just a heads up I'm not entirely sure if that will fix you no display issue but it will work better anyways as you would of eventually had issues with the HP drivers interfering with your current hardware. I would also recommend resetting the CMOS as well just to be thorough.

Turns out it was a bad MotherBoard, i got a replacement Gigabyte H110M-S2H, assembled the rig once more and it booted into windows straight away. Thanks to all that gave thoughts though.
