H67MA-35 (B3) No video - new build

This is a new build. Intel i5 2400, Corsair CMV4GX3M2A1333C9 memory. I've tried this outside the case with nothing else but the monitor connected. All CPU fan powers up. I hear two beeps, silence, then two beeps, over and over. No video output. I've tried multiple DVI and VGA cables. Even installed the GeForce 8600 GTS video card from a previous build. Still no video.
Any ideas?

Only insert one memory module in the slot closest to the CPU.
Then do a full CMOS clear. >>Clear CMOS Guide<< Ensure that the power cord is removed from the PSU and also remove the CMOS battery for a while.
Retest.

H67MA-E45 won't boot (new build)

I am putting together a new build for a HTPC. Here is my setup:
MSI H67MA-E45
Intel Celeron G530
4x2gb 13333mhz Patriot G2 series RAM
Seagate Barracuda 500GB (boot)
Seagabte Barracuda 1TB (storage)
BFG 550W PSU
I emailed tech support initially as I could not get a video signal when booting. The I power it up, the CPU fan is on, the 4 APS LEDs are on, but nothing else. I bought a 8400gs locally and tried that, still no dice. After some back and forth I was told: 'The MB can support G530 CPU since E7678IMS.1C0'
This is a brand new mobo, and I was wondering what bios was shipped from the factory. If there is any more info I can give to help identify the bios version, I'll get that ASAP. If the bios is an early version that does not support the G530, what can I do?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Henry. One last question: I live local an MSI Service Center (City of Industry, CA). Do they accept walk-in/drop offs?
That would be excellent if they do.
You are one lucky person! I would certainly ask them. Here is the generic link for contacting them; http://support.msi.com

No video on new build K9N NEO V3

Hello all,
New build turns on, no beeps and of course no video. Stays running when is turned on just no video. All fans working (CPU, case, power, and video fans). Have tried detaching the mother board and tested with two video cards (one video card per test) and one stick of memory. Used a CRT monitor and a LCD monitor.
Here are the numbers:
msi k9n neo v3
amd athlon 64 x2 5000+ black edition
chaintech geforce 7300gt (tried other pci video card, pulled from working system)
crucial 2-1GB 6400
power supply:
dc output: 3.3v / 5v 12v--12v 5v / -12v / 5vsb
max output current: 12a / 46a 26a--26a .5a / .8a / 3.0a
32a
max combined: 230w 384w 25w
Let me know if more info is needed. Thanks for any help.

Don't know if it is that, but BIOS supports the 5000 BE from v. 2.3. Perhaps you can get help in making sure what BIOS version you got.
It does sound like Bas says processor related. Cause all required power cables are in place, right?
Why the rush in RMA-ing? You must be pretty good at computers to be able to say definitely when it is RMA time, and what to RMA... Or think you are pretty good.
I do computer support for a living but I will be the first to tell you that I don't know everything. I just don't know what else it could be and I guess I'm anxious to get my new rig up and running!! BF2 awaits me . . . It's comforting to hear someone with the same issue so that I don't feel like I'm going crazy here.

New Build using MSI 6600GT 256 PCI-E no Display

Hi all,
Please offer some advice and help me out please.
Just finished a new build.
Intel l775 p4 3.4 ghz on an Asus P5AD2- E Premium board, using MSI 6600gt 256mb PCI-E video card. 2gig Ram
Done plenty of AMD builds using AGP cards so this is a little different for me!
Have finished putting it all together.
Upon power up for the first time im getting no output to monitor?
card has Svideo out and two DVI conectors, im using an anoloug monitor using the DVI to anoulge converter thingy that is supplied.
Monitor just displays no input detected, monitor is fine as works on old system..
Many thanks
Andy

What to expect from a new build I'm planning

I have a basic "opinion" or "guess" question, please.
I'm planning a new build at some point and have to make a decision on when to take the financial plunge. In a few months, funds will be better, but I can manage the cost now if the speed improvements will be worth it. Speed improvements mean time which means money.
I'm running a small business producing videos for ourselves for business presentations (marketing and fund-raising) using Premiere Pro, outputting to FLV and DVD.
My content is pretty simple: video footage (talking head) from a camcorder, with two more tracks for titles and Photoshop images, with dip-to-black transitions. Soon I'll have my video guru provide some 3D animations that will also be included.
Until now, I've been capturing my footage into an interlaced project where I cut the raw footage into usable pieces. Then, I output those pieces to AVI, which I then run through a routine in Virtual Dub with presets my guru provided me with to take care of noise reduction and deinterlacing. Then, I import that resultant AVI (or set of AVIs) to a progressive project where I finish my editing and add the additional tracks with the titles, images and transitions.
Then, I output that to AVI, and convert those AVIs to FLV and/or use Encore to create DVD images.
The main concern I have is the very long wait times when I output to AVI from Premiere, process with Virtual Dub, and output to DVD image from Encore. (Of course, reduction in any wait time adds up, too.)
So, I have to try to guess at what kind of time I'll save when doing those tasks (and across overall working time) once I build the new machine. That will help me decide on whether to build the new machine now or later, based on the financial criteria.
I currently own an HP workstation, but it will not support the new Fermie CUDA cards. I want to use a GTX-470 (or -480). This is the pivotal issue that requires I build a new machine. Until then, I’m not using the CS5 MPE-CUDA features. What I don't know is how much time it will really save me on those major time-consuming tasks when I do make the jump.
One important consideration may lie in the fact that, accoring to my video guru, one of the advantages of the way Premiere CS5 plays well together with the approved CUDA cards is that it does GPU-based deinterlacing. He's suggesting this should may save me the time of having to do it in Virtual Dub phase (I'm not sure what he suggests about the noise reduction -- I think he may have commented that it may no longer be unnecessary, though to me it has seemd to make a huge improvement).
(Note: I see there are still some bugs in CS5 that hamper the benefits for now. For instance, I've read that there's an issue with CS5 whereby it takes a long time to export to AVI, and that there's a compromise with DV on an external monitor, but I don't know that those are issues in my decision since the former is going to exist regardless of whether I do the new build and the latter probably doesn't even apply to me.)
Here are my two system configurations, the "before and after," that I want to compare or, rather, to please ask for some guesses about as to potential time savings. Maybe I should call them the "Current" and "New build."
CURRENT:
- HP z400 machine -- mid-tower (no room for cooling a Fermie card)
- CPU: Xeon quad-core 4-thread
- RAM: 8MB DDR2
- GPU: nVidia FX-580 (obviously won't support new benefits of CS5 the way the GTX-470/480 in the new build will)
- DRIVES: one HD for OS/apps, one HD for swap, and three HDs in a RAID-5 array for data
NEW BUILD:
- high-end full-tower case with plenty of cooling support
- MOBO: ASUS P6X58D
- CPU: i7 930 (maybe OCd a bit, or maybe 980x)
- RAM: 12GB DDR3 triple-channel
- GPU: nVidia GTX-470 (or maybe 480)
- DRIVES: either same as current system, or maybe going to five drives in a RAID-3 array for data
I'd be hugely grateful for any guesses as to how much time in the major encoding tasks (and in overall work time) the new build is likely to save me.
Thanks so much!

Jay, I wonder about this statement of yours "I currently own an HP workstation, but it will not support the new Fermie CUDA cards". How did you come to that conclusion?
Hi Bill,
Well, I make that assertion after a huge amount of time lost trying to make it work.
(See my posts July 16 and July 18th in this thread for the longer version of my excursion: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2945538#2945538)
The GTX-470 calls for at least 550W of power, The HP z400 workstation comes with 475W and it's a proprietary power supply. It won't take a standard ATX PSU -- the screw holes won't line up and even its pin-out for the system power plug is custom.
Undaunted, I bought a Corsair HX750W power supply and placed it outside of the machine on the floor, and used it solely to power the GPU.
I put the GTX-470 in and left the case cover off while familiarizing myself with Windows 7 for a couple days, but when I came into the office the third say the machine was locked up and the GPU was scorching hot. All fans on all components seemed to be working fine.
(I also noticed that the onboard sound never installed and there was no sound, and that the Sound, video and game controllers section in Device Manager only had four instances of "NVIDIA High Definition Audio." HP tech support was at a loss. My video guru says those drivers are probably normal from the GTX-470 card, but nobody could explain why the mother board considered that a replacement for the onboard sound. We don't know if that was a sign of imperfect compatibility between the GPU and mother board, which seems feasible since I had already learned -- the hard way after days of work -- that the mother board was at least a little custom in that the PSU was custom even at the system plug.)
So, when I had come that mornign and found the machine locked and the GPU super hot, I expermimented by cooling the machine down with a huge 12" external fan, then rebooted. For the next fifteen hours I waited to see if it would again heat up and lock up (or was it "lock up then heat up"?) and put more load on it by playing an AVI in WMP full-screen a number of times. For those fifteen hours the system ran fine and GPU stayed somewhere between cool and only very moderately warm.
Nobody has had a reason why it had ended up with the machine locked and the GTX-470 resulted scorching hot.
Bad GPU? Insufficient cooling? (Which maybe caused the system board to lock down the machine... which caused it to keep the GPU going with insufficient fan power???) Incompatibility between the GPU and system board? (Which had caused it to lock up the GPU in "on" mode and thus get scorching hot?)
And the consensus among those who thought it was a cooling issue was "almost" unanimous in saying that just running it with the case cover on would not be enough to keep the GPU reliably below the necessary cooling threshold, especially since I hadn't even begun to put a real load on it (I hadn't even installed Premiere on the machine yet).
And, it seemed evident to me that trying to creatively pack the machine with fans and cooling was just not realistic. If it is, I'd like to know, since that would be a lot cheaper than building a $5,000 machine. Here's a picture of the machine with the GTX-470 in it: www.silver100.com/x/z400_GTX-470.JPG.
Of course, all the cooling in the world still wouldn't help if the problem was compatibility with the system board.
You'll notice I got no responses at that other thread when I asked what the "guess" was as to the cause. So, I figured that -- short of it being a bad GPU -- building a new machine was the only way to fix it if it was a cooling problem and the only way to fix it if it was a compatibility problem.
I'm sure anxious to hear your thoughts.
Thanks so much!

New build with MSI 970A-G45 won't load OS or live CD

Motherboard: MSI 970A-G45 AM3+ AMD 970
CPU: AMD Athlon II X3 455 Rana 3.3 Ghz Socket AM3
RAM: G.Skill Sniper Series 2x4GB DDR3 1866, Model F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR
Video Card (original): ASUS ENGTX550 TI DC/DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 550 Ti
Video Card (operational): XFX 7600 GT
System HD: Runcore 64GB Sata II SSD
Optical Drive: LITE-ON SATA DVD-RW drive
I just finished building a new upgrade build into an existing case with an existing PSU and hard drives/optical drive. Originally the system wouldn't power on at all, which I traced to the new video card (something to do with grounding or an inadequate power supply maybe?), but in any case I got past that for the moment with my old video card. The system will power on and get to the BIOS screen. I can enter the BIOS and everything looks fine: all my drives are detected, the RAM is present, the CPU looks correct. However, when I go to actually load an operating system, it never loads. After the BIOS screen I just get a blank screen with a white blinking cursor in the upper-left corner, and this never goes away (I've tried leaving it for 10 minutes or more).
Originally I was trying to boot from the mentioned SSD which has both Ubuntu 11.04 and Windows 7 64-bit partitions installed with GRUB2 to load them. This didn't load, so I tried an Ubuntu 11.04 live CD in my DVD-ROM drive. That didn't work, so I tried the same CD in an external USB CD-ROM drive in case it was a problem with the SATA controller/connectors. Still the same behavior. So I tried a memtest86+ CD in both drives. Still the same behavior. For each of the tests after the first I explicitly opened the boot menu with F11 at the BIOS screen and selected the device I wanted to try.
At this point I've already tried exchanging the memory I had originally bought with the memory I listed above, since the old memory I realized after I bought it was labelled as "Intel i5/i7 compatible" and the new memory is on the MSI support list for this motherboard model. Any thoughts on where to go next? My next thought was to RMA the motherboard but I feel like I'm flying blind here. I've never see a new build get stuck at this point in the boot process.

OK posting from Ubuntu on my now-working build!!
So, after two weeks of messing around with the CPU, RAM, video card, etc., I finally have the thought that the one thing I haven't tried yet is the old SATA expansion PCI card that I put in early on at the bottom of the motherboard underneath the video card (out of direct sight, out of mind apparently), for when I try to connect all 7 of my SATA devices. I tried pulling that out - presto, it boots. Retried a couple of times for proof, keeps booting correctly. It can even load memtest86+ off a CD. Put the PCI card back in - still boots. Reconnected the sata drive - no boot. Remembered that this particular PCI card has two SATA ports and one is for RAID of some kind, tried the other port - now it boots. The drive connected to the card is also detected by the OS.
In conclusion, it was something entirely different from what I was working on, as it usually is.
I'm going to get to work connecting everything back up, getting the new video card working, etc. I suspect I'll be back at least to read when I try to get my memory working at 1866 (different forum I know). Thanks to those who responded for the pointers.

New Build for Lightroom 3

First post so please be kind
I currently am using an old P4 machine to edit my photos. I up until a month ago was using acdsee for editing my Canon 5D files. I've since upgraded to a 5d mark2 and downloaded the free trial of lightroom 3 and so far loving all the capabilities it offers over acdsee. However it's dog slow on my p4 with 4gb ram and running Win XP. So I'm in the market for a new build specifically for lightroom 3. My budget is small, I've done some research but still not sure on cpu/mobo and if I really need 8gb of ram or can get away with 4gb. Hard drives I've decided on are 2 WD velociraptors 300gb one for OS
and the 2nd for Programs which mainly will only be LR 3
2 1tb WD Black, one for my photo storage and one for back up.
Last drive will be a 1 or 2 TB external drive for backup.
Will the video from the mobo be enough for Lightroom 3 or do i need to upgrade that as well?
I've seen some great deals on refurbished pc's and also I am capable of building a pc from a barebones kit.
Any suggestions you guys have would be great!
Thank you,
[personal information removed by moderator]

Have a look here: Adobe Forums: What PC to build?
Now this is for video editing. Your requirements for LR are much less, so take a specific look at the budget model. That should be more than enough for your purposes. Your suggested disk setup looks like overkill (yeah, coming from me, that is hardly possible, but I mean it). You could shave off sizable $$ by going for a single Velociraptor and using simple Samsung Spinpoint F3's instead.

Brand New Build - Completing Installation Hangs

Hey Guys,
I just bought all the following components for a new build:
Gigabyte GA 965P-S3 MOBO
Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 (1.8Ghz)
1GB (2x512) Corsair DDR2 (667) RAM
200Gb HGST SATA300 HDD
256Mb XFX 7600GS GPU
Pioneer DVR-112DBK
And...Windows Vista Home Basic.
OK, so hardware wasn't a problem, had everything hooked up and neat within 2 hours.
Plug in the power and turn it on (it's alive!) with the Windows DVD in the drive, and boots to Vista installation...choose language/enter product key/accept licence blah blah...Copying Files...Expanding Files...Installing updates...computer reboots, back to installation.
Now the problem, the installation screen comes back up and displays ticks by all of the previous steps, and has the Completing Installation unticked and the three dots...waiting...waiting...waiting.
And thats it, Vista installation will go no further than that. Have left the installation on overnight and nothing happens. The HDD light will flicker every so often, and stay on constantly for a few seconds and then go off for ages.
After a while, I got fed-up of waiting, so I installed XP Pro and that worked first time like a charm, setup was complete in no longer than 45 minutes and within an hour all drivers had been setup.
I can't think why anything would impeed the installation, everything was spec'd to work with Vista.
I have tried 'unplugging the monitor cable' and toning-down the bios settings, but there was still no joy.
Any help greatly appreciated.

I found a simple way to do things, and have done some home work. I found out that most of the systems that are having problems with Vista are not realy Vista ready. I have a laptop that was not build for Vista I have installed Vista premium edition on it. With the help of the guys at Munksupport Their service is free just clcik on th elive help sign on the right.
But here. all we have to do is get standard hardware devices, most of the newer hardware devices are not ready and if you are going use brand new hardware devices, get ready for a lot of hard work. I use to have problem with application not working properly, as The guys at MunkSupport proved, the older hardware devices that you are able to find drivers for under XP, that worked will work under Vista.
If you are not able to configure an XP system by going to the manufactures website and downloading and having that device running under XP forget trying to run Vista on that device. Most of these new devices will wirk well under XP because XP have drivers for thsoe devices in its drivers folder, C:\windows\Driver Cache\i386\driver.cab. Most device drivers are found their, that's why when you install some devices you do not need to install the drivers for it. Windows will find the device and install it for you.
The disk tha came with the device are often time updated drivers that ad functionallity to the device. For Vista they are not ready, that why we are having so many problems, their are confliting applications, and no one was ready for Vista release. Older hardware may give you a slower performance but they are the working ones.
When you install Vista, it reorders the driver.cab folder, they calle it the driver store now. and most of the support for thsoe drivers are not in that store for the newer devices. also due to the great amount of security they place it this Vista system, Most drivers wont work. Here is why
Most drivers will try to write in the Kernel area are RAM directly, But Vista have no heart for that, that's why everything you do under Vista you get that popup that asked you if you want to continue.
Simple, If you can configure the device to work and run undeer Xp chances are it will work under Vista.
To test this out her is what you do. Under XP remove the drivers for your hardware devices except for your video and Network adapter, make sure you have backup. Visit the manufacturers website download the drivers and setup each device, after yo have down so get a windows update and see if thsoe devices still work. then install SP2 and use the system fro a few days, then install all of windows updates. see if any device fails, or if you run into any aspplication poblems, if so run another windows update, sometime updates mess upi your system. take note of everything you do then upgrade to Vista. If all things work out well
for information visit Munsupport.com, and ask thsoe guys they know their stuff. Some things may take a while to solve, but it's free and they get back to you.

Proposed new build K7N2-Delta L

Hello,
I am looking at a new build using a K7N2-Delta L MB. The proposed parts are:
PSU: Antec True 550
Video: PNY NVIDIA GeForce FX5700LE (128MB)
CPU: Athlon xp 3000 (333 Mhz FSB)
DVD Writer, Tape Drive(Certance Travan 40, IDE), etc.
OS: Win XP Pro SP2
Memory: Mushkin
On the memory, I am looking at either Mushkin
512 MB PC2700 DDR 222 Level II Black x 2 (1 GB)
or
512 MB PC3200 DDR 222 Black Hi Perf LII V2-New Release x 2 (1 GB)
(for possible upgrade later to XP3000 or XP 3200 400 MHz CPU)
I have several questions concerning memory.
1. Would it be better to go for the PC3200 memory even if the CPU isn't upgraded?
I believe the DDR 400 memory will run at DDR 333 speed. Am I Correct?
2. If I were later to add an additional 512 MB to the system (1.5 GB) would I lose the dual channel mode?
3. Has anyone had any experience with using the PC3200 DDR 222 Level II V2-new release Memory sticks?
I do not intend to overclock the proposed system.
It will be used for general computing use and some light printed circuit board layout work and Ham radio digital transmitting and receiving software.
I have talked with the Mushkin sales people and they are saying either memory listed above will work great at 2-2-2-11 settings.
What do the VERY knowledgeable folks on this forum think? I have read the entire forum and would like some input. Sorry this is such a long post.
Thanks,
Mark5

Hello,
Here is a review of the ram, DDR 222 one,

New build P7N SLI-FI stuck on Memory Check

I have a new build with the following components:
Case: Aluminus ULTRA
Mobo: MSI P7N SLI-FI
CPU: Intel E8400, 3ghz LGA775, 1333 fsb, Core 2 Duo
PSU: Rosewill Extreme RX950-s-b, 80 Plus
HDD: Seagate Barracuda, 7200 SATAII
Memory: 4 X CM2X1024-6400C4 (DDR2 800 1gb sticks)
Video Card: NVidia GeForce 9500 GT
Everything is plugged in according to the directions with the mobo, I connected the 24 pin power, and the 8 pin power for the CPU. Everything is brand new, I carefully seated the CPU and cooler.
The thing gets as far as the memory check and stalls.. nothing more. At one point the message concerning the DEL or F11 key to go to BIOS or Boot came up but pressing either did nothing.
I remove the mobo from the chassis and place it on a non conductive surface.. no luck. Same result.
I remove all memory sticks but one ... still same result.
This is extremely frustrating.. any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe

Thanks for your reply.
Sorry for the crack about the Intel board...just frustrated.
So the company that I bought the board from (local company) actually loaned me a CPU that worked fine (Pentium 4), so I could flash the BIOS. I was pleasantly surprised. There is some definite value to buying from your local shop, I never shopped there before.. but I am glad I did this time... they are very trusting people.
Now my next problem; I do not have a license for Windows (nor do I have any Windows media laying around). I am a Linux user.
I have OpenSuse 10.3 up and running on this machine now and it is running great. I would however like to use my new processor so I need to flash to 7380 ver. 2.1.
Is there any utility for flashing the BIOS under Linux?
Thanks again,
Joe

New Build P67A-C43 B3 shuts down in 2 sec

This is a new build: (all components new)
msi P67A-C43 (B3)- mainboard
Intel Core i5 quad processor
Diablotek 550ATX power supply
GE Force GT 520 Video
8 GB DDR3 RAM
When powered up runs about 1 sec and shuts off.
Tried several suggestions... disconnected everything except CPU and 1 memory stick
Took MainBoard out of the case (Same problem)
reset CMOS (same problem)
Any new suggestions HELP !!!!

Make sure that the 4/8-Pin +12V connector for the CPU is properly plugged in.
Please check the board's CPU socket for broken or bent CPU pins.
Make sure the CPU heatsink is not fastened to tight.

New Build. Intel 5960X 8 core or 2699 v3 18 core Xeon?

Planning a new build in June. Just wondering which would be the better processor for PP pro cc and AE. Usually in my builds I max out memory and use SSDS and best video card. Just wondering about the processors. Thanks Roman

They are definitely different beasts - one is faster, the other has more cores. So, bottom line, it depends!
If I had my choice for single CPU:
- 5960x overclocked to 4.4 or 4.5 GHz - 1st place (way less $$$ too)
- e5-2687w v3 - 10 cores, more cores than the 5960x, and still plenty fast - 2nd place
- e5-2699 v3 - 18 cores, slower clock speed; best "render power" for some workflows, but base speed of 2.3 GHz is rather limiting for GPU and/or single CPU workflows - 3rd place (and most expensive by FAR)
Regards,
Jim

New Build FM2-A75IA-E53 - No (analog) sound on Speakers

New build:
MSI FM2-A75IA-E53 motherboard
AMD A10-5700 Trinity 3.4GHz (4.0GHz Turbo) Socket FM2 65W Quad-Core Desktop APU
G.Skill Sniper DDR3 1866MHZ (PC14900) 8GB Memory Kit (2 x 4GB)
Western Digital WD Blue WD10EZEX 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal
SAMSUNG DVD Burner SATA Model SH-224BB - OEM
Microsoft Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit - OEM
IN WIN BP655.300TB3L Black Steel / Plastic Mini-ITX Tower Computer Case (300 Watt TFX Power Man PSU)
Installed Windows, then MSI utilities and Windows Updates through March 2013. Set Speakers to Default and Default Communication Device. Plugged speakers into rear (green 3.5 mm) connector on the motherboard. No Sound. Plugged same Speaker cable into another computer and sound works great (so it's not the speakers or speaker cable).
Did a 2nd quick install on a 1.5 TB WD Green Hard Drive (SATA 6.0 Gb/s) and just loaded Windows 7 SP1 Pro 64-bit with no additional utilities or drivers, verified that the rear speakers were default. Disconnected front audio header cable, and again no sound.
In both setups I used the default Windows Media Player and played the 3 included audio tracks on a loop. None of the speakers were on mute and the green LED's were indicating movement for the sound in the volume control
I suspect it may be a problem with onboard audio - not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In Device Manager, under Sound, video and game controllers, are:
- High Definition Audio Device
- Realtek High Definition Audio Device
Under Properties for each, both devices are (reported as) working properly (i.e., no red X's or Yellow exclamation marks)
The cable for the front panel headphone connection also does not work. As I was plugging the speaker cable in, I did hear a hum on the speakers that went away when the cable was fully inserted (it's the same kind of hum you'd hear if you touched the tip of the cable with your fingers).
After I download the file at the link you provided, it turns out it's the same audio driver update (6.0.1.6823) that I downloaded and installed last night, but since it was a "new" download, I re-installed it (which uninstalls the old, reboots, installs the new, reboots) and the result is the same.
Even after a fresh OS install, Windows 7 natively installs "drivers" and I am unable to get any sound out, so it would appear to be even more basic than the Realtek drivers themselves. No sound even after a native install leads me to think it's either something in the BIOS or a hardware problem with the on-board audio.
If it is the BIOS, what can be checked? Under Mainboard Settings, under Integrated Peripherals, HD Audio Controller is [Enabled]. Are there any other settings related to audio?

New Build - evga nvidia geforce gtx 760 only running x8?

New build of x99s sli plus. Going mostly well, but I can't get my GeForce gtx 760 to run at x16, only x8.
Config:
MSI x99s sli plus
Plextor PCIe M.2 card
evga gtx 760 in top slot (only 1 video card)
32 gig 2133 RAM
Also have 3 additional PCIe cards: Firewire, SATA, Audio.
(4) HDD as RAID 10 in SATA 1-4
sata 7-8 ODD's
AFAIK, the video card should be running at x16.
Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

Thanks for input:
The audio card in PCI_E4
sata card in PCI_E5
firewire card in PCI_E6
(I'm afraid I might know where this is going, but will appreciate explanation)
Power supply is Corsair HX 850
Now we know why the vga is at x8. Your cpu just offers 28 lanes. No matter what card you use once E5 and E6 are populated lanes are auto switched for multi gpu. Use all x1 slots and the third card in PCI_E3

New build, no display

Hi all,
I'm new to the board, building a new desktop and I've run into a slight snag. I'll get all the details out first
AMD Phenom X4 840 3.2 ghz
MSI 760 GM-E51
GSkill ddr3 1333 pc310666 4GBx2
Western Digital WD5000aakx 500gb HDD
MSI DH42AS 24x dvdrw
those are all installed, i have an MSI r6570 video card I haven't put in yet, because well I can't get a display from the onboard video outputs. I've tried 2 different monitors and 2 different cables, a dvi to hdmi and a hdmi to hdmi and no luck anywhere. If anyone can give me a heads up on something I might have missed, it will be greatly appreciated.

Other suggestions in this thread that you get another PSU pronto are good advice--and it's free (the advice, I mean)... So take it.
I wonder--you say it's a new build--did you by chance forget to plug in the 4-pin/8-pin 12v cpu PSU connector? Does the Logsys (honestly never heard of it) PSU even have one? Just a thought--probably wouldn't boot if that was the case, though.
that psu he has is junk and should only be used as a paper weight! its likely if it ever works to deliver very dirty/inconsistant power to componants and cause them to be ruined from nasty spikes and sudden dips in power! there are horror stories from uses who have had them all over the internet and should not be trusted at all JUST GET RID OF IT "BURN IT WITH FIRE SO IT WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO BE USED AGAIN!"
cheaply made psu's are the bane of the world and as such should be avoided at all costs (i personally will only buy good well reviewed (by users of them) psu's regardless of how much they cost) NEVER BUY CHEAP PSU'S PLEASE JUST DONT DO IT (save for a few more weeks if you have to and buy a good one please )!
