Hello, My son and I are building a PC and ran into a problem. The build itself went with no problems. All fans and rgb turn on, but nothing on the monitor. I have spent days working on this and could use some suggestions.
The individual components are: B650E Max Gaming Motherboard, AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, GeForce RTX 5070, Century II Gold 850 power supply, and a Thermalright cooler. Along with 2 - Seagate BarraCuda 2TB Internal HDD and a WD Black 1TB SSD, and a 500 GB WD Black SSD.
What I have done already based on google searches and YouTube videos:
-Changed monitors
-Reseated Ram multiple times
-Reseated graphics card multiple times
-Reseated CPU 1 time
-Reseated SSD
-Removed HDD and no change on start up
-Checked all connections on the power supply multiple times
-Removed and replaced the battery for BIOS
-Switched graphics card cable
-Connected monitor directly to the motherboard and received a message that I have no understanding of - it reads: New CPU installed, Ftpm/psp NV corrupted or ftpm/psp NV structure changed. And then wants me to choose resetting or not - I have done neither since the monitor is not supposed to be connected to the motherboard. I just wanted to see if I’d get something.
-Removed all RGB
-Reconnected every connection on the motherboard
I am still getting a blank screen.
the motherboard does not have diagnostic lights that I can see (even though a google search will tell you it does), but the tower power light has a slow blink. If that is the same as diagnostics lights, it would indicate no boot device detected. However, I am at a loss for how to fix that. Any suggestions would be welcome.
thank you.
