i have a problem. I get a black screen when i start up i have checked sites on the internet and they have been no use to me I'm running and asus p8h61 b3 revision (no on board graphics which i suspect that, that is the problem) a gtx650 tested, i5 3330 and Kingston kvr1333D3N9H/8G, 8GB of course and i have had no luck with it. Nothing comes up and the monitor doesn't pick up that the PC is on. This is my first build, PLEASE HELP
 
just remove the battery of the mainboard for about 1/2 min or so and then put it back again.
this resets the bios to default.


edit: my mistake yeah...just turn off the pc completely from the mains and wait for sometime to ensure that there is no static charge left

What he said ^ you just remove the battery, wait about a min or so. Put it back in and it will reset everything. Make sure the power supply is off, or plugged out when doing it.
