No screen signal after boot

[Ironarmygeneral]

So, I tried to boot up my PC after doing something, and it boots, but no signal is thrown at the monitor. I tried pulling out my GT 730 and plugging the VGA cable into the mainboard, but it still didn't do anything. (Of course I had the PC turned off when I pulled out my GT 730.) And I can't seem to figure out what is wrong. Anyone got any ideas?

My specs are:

AMD FX-4300 QC 3.8 GHz
EVGA GT 730 2 GB
EVGA 500W PSU (80+ bronze)
ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 MoBo
(Not important but I'm still gonna add it AOC E2070Swn 1600 x 900 60 Hz 19" monitor

Wow I seriously made that smily face on accident... it was supposed to be a colon and then a parentheses lol

reset mobo, possibly the video output is not on auto, and is stuck on PCI-E

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

So reset it with the battery, right?

 

[13thmonkey]

battery and jumper.

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

Okay thank you!

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

Well, that didn't seem to work...

 

[mmaatt747]

What did you mean by "after doing something" in your original post? Was it a hardware change?

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

No I meant I came back from a person activity.

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

*personal*

 

[mmaatt747]

Do you have another monitor that you can try?

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

Yup. I've tried all three outputs both on my MoBo and my GT 730 and I tried eith like 3 different monitors and none got signal.

 

[mmaatt747]

Do you have any way of knowing if it POST's when you boot?

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

??

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

Oh, no. There is absolutely no signal to the monitor what-so-ever. I'm not even able to access the BIOS.

 

[mmaatt747]

Do yo have a 4 pin speaker connected to your motherboard that beeps when you first turn on your computer to let you know if your motherboard is successfully Posting?

At this point I would bread-board your components and try to boot (no GPU and only 1 stick of ram)

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

Yup, I'll try to breed-board it. And my MoBo has a hidden speaker somewhere (I can't find it) but it does beep every time I turn it on. The only problem being it just doesn't wanna supply monitor signal. But yeah, I'll try breed boarding.

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

*bread*

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

Well I simply just dunno what to do now. I've tried all of that, I've tried an electrostatic-discharge, I've tried using one memory stick and then two, and also moving them around to test my DIMM lanes, I've tried using the other 4 pin 12v ATX for my CPU (My motherboard has one 4 pin port, and my PSU has two 4 pin connectors, I tried using the other connector), I've tried completely rebuilding the system, I've tried a MoBo/CMOS reset, I've tried so many more things that I won't even bother to put on here... UGH.

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

It's pretty funny, I was on that exact same page that you gave me a link to, reading it, when you sent me it. Lol. But yeah, I've tried everything on that list and MORE. Maybe I accidentally fried the brand new MoBo already that I just installed two months ago. Although what makes no sense is that is has anti-surge support.

 

[mmaatt747]

Wow what a bummer! You don't by chance have another power supply you can try do you?

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

I do, but it's a lower wattage and isn't enough to power my hardware... lol. It's okay. The worst that could have happened is that I may now have to buy a new MoBo. I can get an AM3+ Socket MoBo for about $50, and I make about $1000 every 2.5 months as a 14 year old. Lol

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

Lol. Hmm... seeing your PC specs, I see it's kinda funny how yours is obviously more expensive, yet I have a lot more storage lol. I've got 2,820 GB storage space... lol. A 60 GB boot drive, 1 TB internal HDD, 160 GB internal HDD, 500 GB HDD, and a 1 TB external HDD. Lol

 

[Ironarmygeneral]

Although the 500 Gb hDD and the 160 gB GDDs were both out of two seperate PCs, lol.

*GB* *HDD*
