Question Zsus x99 8d4 wont post. All fans blowing but no hdmi detected

[diana1k]

Hi,

I'm building a system for the first time and have watched a few YouTube videos related to the zsus x99, but can't get it to post.

The system has:
1. Zsus x99 8d4 atx motherboard
2. 500W power supply with 24 and 8 pin cables connected.
3. GT 610 graphics card with hdmi cable connected to Dell Monitor.
4. Fan connected without thermal paste as the ad said thermal paste wasn't needed
5. NV ssd hard drive 512 gb
6. USB keyboard connected to ps2 adapter and ps2 adapter connected to purple kb port.
7. The motherboard was ordered with CPU and one 16 GB memory stick pre-installed.

The system powers up and fans run without shutdown. I recently replaced the graphics card GT 210 with GT 610.

Any thoughts on next steps or what needs to ordered for replacement?

Any help appreciated,

Diana

Can you post ad and or clarify ?

Has it worked at all with the GT 210.

If It did run with the GT 210 put it back in and than while it's in and working uninstall the GT 210 GPU driver.

Shut down and try the GT 610 again with the correct driver for that card.

It didn't work at all with either gt210 or 610. I tried a vga to hdmi converter powered from one of USB ports, but no hdmi posting.

I will post the ad in the next reply.

What do you think of ordering an x79 motherboard since both gt210 and 610 use ddr3 ram instead of ddr5 ram on x99 motherboard?

I don't know how to remove the driver from gt210, can you post instructions?

I checked the small instruction packet included abd the instruction packet said to use thermal paste, but none was provided.

The part number is a tsr127128 with pure aluminum compaction for process material., hydraulic bearings, 12025 fan type, 2200+-10% RPM, 19db noise value, for intel lga775, 1155, 1156, 1150 series and and socket am2, am3 fm1 series.

What thermal paste is good to order from Amazon?

The ad said bo paste and the instruction book says paste, confusing.

Did you install BIOS battery?
Can you show a photo of your system with side panel removed?

BTW - Getting 8 years old server board for first build is rather strange choice.
