Question No life from monitor/mouse/keyboard

[RadiographerK]

Everything else seems normal.
Unplugged everything to remove dust (bar processor) and replugged. I'm a bit of a PC noob.

are you plugging in the back usb ports and are they hooked up properly? you may want a friend who builds pcs to look it over if you are a n00b, or take it to a shop

 

[RadiographerK]

Yeah I've used the rear ports, no luck.

so you can't get into the BIOS to see if they all work there?

Is that possible without the peripheries working? I'm a bit new to PC stuff sorry

when you boot up, does the monitor show anything at all? if it doesn't show something at post you have some serious hardware issues

1. During boot sequence, press DEL key in keyboard and go to BIOS settings.
2. I spam the snot out of the DEL key when it starts up
3. the BIOS should show
4. if it does, your monitor, kb and mouse should all work
5. report back here.

also test the kb/mouse/monitor on another pc pr laptop to prove they are not the issue

 

[RadiographerK]

The monitor just says no signal or doesnt show anything at all. The keyboard and mouse also have no lights when they usually do

 

[RadiographerK]

The monitor said MSI then no signal then turned back off. The keyboard and mouse were working fine before I cleaned the dust out :/

 

[RadiographerK]

I'll check them with my laptop tho

then something is not hooked up properly. perhaps you didn't hook up the PSU properly is a guess.

Yes I think this is the likely culprit and I initially didnt have the gpu plugged in. I cant see where anything else could plug in. Can I post pictures on this website?

 

[Deleted member 14196]

you can link images from imgur or other hosting sites, sure. hopefully the hardware gurus will chime in if you do.

Why is there no heatsink on the CPU? You can damage the CPU that way. Also looks like the case fan is not connected to anything.

Need a bit better details, is this a new build or something that used to work? You said you unplugged everything to remove dust, is that when it stopped working? From the looks of the system you did not really remove a lot of dust, it looks pretty dirty to me, and you have loose cables all over the place.

Get someone that knows how to setup computers to go over what was done, all you can do is check the connections and re-seat components. Since you don't even have the heatsink on, that does not seem like you would be able to trouble-shoot the system properly, need someone with experience to look it over.

I don't see a hard drive or ssd either, unless it's in the back. It looks like someone stole internal components out of your build.

 

[RadiographerK]

The heatsink is back in correctly. I've now followed guides to make sure all of my components are in correctly. Still no power in the peripherals. My friend who helped me built it is busy
