I have bought a new motherboard and CPU.

I filled in with some old stuff.

When I turn on the Computer it sounds good (as it should). I can hear how the processor starts and the harddrive as well...

However the monitor wont start up.

I have tested to swap graphicscard with my other computer but the monitor still wont start.

With my other computer the monitor starts up normally.


Could the Motherboard be broken (doesnt give signal as it should) ?
or could my MB not fit good together with my Monitor?

Could I do anything to solve the problem?


help very appriciated.

If you can, switch the problematic monitor with another one. Also, try to switch the new CPU with an older one if the older one is compatible with your new motherboard. Just because you hear the CPU fan turn on doesn't mean the CPU works.

The memory was in but for some reason not good enough. whemn I inserted the memory again. it worked..

strange that the Monitor didnt work cause of that the memory wasnt plugged in btw....
