Question New build, not working.

[Devon557]

Hi, I've always used this forum, but never felt the need to sign up for it. Well, here I am.

I currently am putting together a new system after six years and I'm running into issues.

Currently have:

Core i7-7700k
RTX 2060
Asus h110m-a/m.2
600w PSU

Now I took a risk on using my brothers old motherboard that has not seen use in a long time. (Could possibly be dead, but I hope not)

Everything powers on fans, lights, etc. But I fail to get any response from monitor, mouse, and keyboard.

If anyone could help me locate the issue, it would be greatly appreciated.

What do you mean took a risk? What specifically did you do with the old motherboard and your new components?

Hi, the BIOS might need an update for supporting that CPU.

I took the risk as in not testing it before putting it in the system.

How would I go about doing that?

You can order a BIOS chip on ebay and replace the board's one. Or, use a CPU supported by early BIOS versions.
