Hi,

I would suggest you to check all the connections with the
mobo as well as the BIOS settings.
1. Refer to the mobo user manual and recheck every
connections, especially for the power up and reset
buttons. Make sure the +/- and ground for the power and
reset buttons are connected correctly.
2. For no beeping sound:
A. Is there any internal speaker on the chassis?
If yes, have you connected it to the mobo's speaker out
socket.
B. Some mobo use on board sound chip to report errors
during POST. If your mobo have this feature, have you
enabled it in the BIOS?
3. Check the 12V power cables that connected to the mobo,
refer to the mobo user manual for details.
4. Make sure the vedio cable is connected properly with
the vedio out port.
5. Check the BIOS setting to ensure the onboard vedio
card is not disabled.
6. Make sure there is no short circuit between the mobo
and the chassis.

Hope it helps.

Peter
