Computer has no video signal and keeps restarting

MSI Z77A-G45 Thunderbolt LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) X 2
Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000 BX80637I53570K
COOLER MASTER HAF 912 RC-912-KKN1 Black SECC/ ABS Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
No video card, attempting to use the video from the processor
I plugged in a hard drive, keyboard and mouse from another computer.
The new home-build computer starts but sends no video signal to the monitor, spins the fans and lights the LEDs for about 20 seconds, and restarts, over and over again.
Everything but the hard drive, keyboard and mouse are brand new.
I would expect to at least see something on the monitor telling me what has gone wrong.
Any ideas on what could be going on?

Corsair strongly advises against mixing two kits even with the same part numbers.
Does the HDD have a pre existing OS on it? Z77's default to AHCI mode, so if the OS on the HDD was loaded under IDE Mode, it won't work. Actually, if the OS is being migrated from another system, it is most likely not going to work correctly anyway. A fresh OS install is always recommended. But! This is moot if you can't get it to POST!
A key component is not listed, the PSU. What are the +12V amps?
Connect the monitor by another port instead of HDMI for testing. Also, remove all the RAM except one stick which is left in the primary DIMM2 slot. If still no POST, test with each RAM stick individually in the DIMM2 slot.
If the RAM has serial numbers along with the batch numbers, separate them back to the two kits. In case of RMA, they have to be matched up and the two kits separated anyway.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.

    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

    my computer has become much slower and may have been infected.  Is there any course of action I can take in solving this problem?

    If this started happening without your having made any changes and without a warning of low disk space, then it's likely that the startup drive, or some other hardware component, is failing. Back up all data immediately, then run Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test.
    Even if the test is negative, you should make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested more thoroughly.

    Well, I hadn't rebooted after the 7.1.1 upgrade, but obviously I had to restart iTunes. After I rebooted my iBook iTunes worked... Maybe the 7.1.1 update should be marked with a must reboot?

  • Ipod nano 7th stuck at boot loop and keep restarting

    i got my ipod nano 7th a few day ago. now it stuck in apple logo and keep restarting. i tried reset it already. amd i also put it in disk mode and rrestored. it still restarting the apple logo. are there any solution? There arent any apple store in my country.. Help please..

    I am afraid yo need to visit the store and possibly ask for a replacement. In some cases, doing the reset will correct any issues, but by the way you describe it, it freezes with apple logo. Better to get a replacement.

  • No video signal and wierd noises

    I put together a new system with the 865pe neo 2 about a week and a half ago. Had to clear the CMOS to get a boot initially but since then the system has worked fine (except for an ongoing problem with com1..).
    Last night I loaded UT2003 demo and played it for about 45 minutes then I powered down. This morning I started to get alerts from core centre that the 3.3v was down around 2.9-2.84. Then my video signal started cutting out (screen goes blank for a second) then finally the system froze. I rebooted and checked the bios (I'm using standard boot with no overclocking) As the day went on the system became more and more difficult to boot. At first I could get to the OS but it would quickly freeze. Then I could get into the BIOS but then the screen pixelated and then froze. On occasion the system would show 4 red lights and give me the 2 tone alarm. (Good God I hope its not the CPU) At this time I have no video signal at all. I tried another monitor..no go. I am using a good power supply (Enermax 365P-ve). Now the system POSTs okay but refuses to go any further (still no video though)
    Do you think my ATI is toast? How could it just stop working? Does the loss of video card have such an effect on the boot up?
    Any thoughts would be appreciated. I am at my wits end.
    prouja

    No I haven't tried a different power supply. All my other computers are PIII and use ~300W supplies.
    I did try the ATI video card in an old computer and it didn't give my any problems so now I am thinking maybe the RAM or as you said the power supply.
    Is there any way to test the output of the power supply? I have a digital multitester but I'm not great with it.
    Could RAM issues cause the problems I encountered?
    As an update the computer now makes 2 long and then 8 short beeps at startup and then hangs at keyboard initialization (as shown by the 4 leds at the back) Of course this started after I tried clearing the CMOS (power off).

  • HT3728 how do i reset up my macbook username and password the computer has been cleaned out and reset to original factory settings

    I just had my macbook pro cleaned out and restored to it's original facory settings. i cannot access set up assistant to configure my username and password for the computer. it does not recognize my old username and password and I can't find where to enter this information.

    Unless you erased the drive then reinstalled Mavericks you will not see the Setup Assistant to configure your initial admin account. I have no idea just what you did. But to reset to factory state means you had to first install the version of OS X that came with the computer on the gray labeled DVDs. For your model that would have been a version of Leopard. If you have a Snow Leopard DVD then you can use that instead. The process is:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    Once you have 10.6.8 running you can enter the App Store with your Apple ID and re-download Mavericks to upgrade to 10.9.2.

  • Is there any way to convert video files and keep my project in Final Cut Pro 7?

    I am currently editing a project, and have been having multiple issues with freezing while editing. Upon doing some quick research, I learned it is bcause my clips are in the h.264 format, which is not a good editing codec. Is there any way to change the codec of the videos and keep the project I have?

    You might need to relink the timeline to the new media. Just take the H.264 files offline, and reconnect to the new media. If you media managed the sequence, it'd relink. But then you are only converting the files used in the sequence, not all your media.
