[SOLVED] No video display through on-board graphics or discrete graphics ?

[djholley]

Just bought a pc for cheap to turn into a budget gaming pc. Everything seems to work and light up on case and motherboard power light But when I power it on there's no video no matter how its connected if its display port on motherboard, dvi on motherboard. Everything is connected and installed correctly. I wish I could test the the cpu and motherboard by swapping them out with others but don't have anything laying around. Things I've Tried so far but still no video signal:

• Tried onboard graphics with DisplayPort and DVI
• Tried graphics card HDMI and DVI
• Replaced and Resetted CMOS
• Switch with known working Ram and even tried different ram slots
• Booted with No Ram all I get is 3 long beeps requiring install of ram and no signal
• Unplugging everything except the necessary hardware.

Specs Motherboard: Intel DQ67SW
CPU: Intel I5 2500
GPU: HIS 7850 Ice-Q
Ram: 2x8GB A-Tech Ram
PSU: 80W bronze 550W HEC-550TB

using any adapter to the monitor? vga?

Remove the graphics card and connect to the motherboard.
When a discrete graphics card is installed, the motherboard will direct the boot image to the card.
Possibly the card is faulty.
A 7850 normally requires a 6 pin psu connector.
Was that connected?

I used a vga to hdmi adapter but I also used a dvid to hdmi adapter and just a straight up hdmi to the graphics card and a straight up display port to the motherboard no signal

Does the monitor autodetect the input connection?
Perhaps you have to use the monitor OSD controls to select the input?

I figured it out bad motherboard. Placed a new motherboard in ASUS and works now
