Good morning all, please help.. I have recently purchased a Z97 Gryphon MB, after the install/build it was time to power her up..

Unfortunately it gets as far as the VGA check but the red light stays on and no display.

I have a usb mouse, usb keyboard and HDMI monitor connected.

Some photos attached, hope they help.

I don't believe it is realistic to believe that you can successfully power the motherboard with a 150 watt Streacom ST-NANO150.

(From page 1-36 of downloadable manual)
Do not forget to connect the 4-pin/8-pin EATX 12v power supply.

Use a power supply that complies with ATX 12v Specification 2 (or later version) and has a minimum power of 350 watts.

Pentium G3258 - TDP 53 watts
The Thermal Design Power (TDP) is the average maximum power a processor can dissipate while running commercially available software. TDP is primarily used as a guideline for manufacturers of thermal solutions (heatsinks/fans, etc) which tells them how much heat their solution should dissipate.
