I successfully built my first PC last year without any trouble, and
now my brother has decided to trust me with assembling another one for
him. Unfortunately, this time I can't get the computer to boot. When
I turn it on, all that happens is that the fans start and the lights
come on in whatever parts I have connected. The POST code on the
motherboard is FF, which I assume is fine since that's what the
computer I'm using now is showing. I have yet to get the new project
to give me a single beep or display anything on monitors that I know
work.
Something's wrong, and I'm coming to accept that I may have to replace
a part. I just don't know which one. I can't think of anything I did
to damage the motherboard, but so far it seems to be the most likely
culprit.
If anyone can help me figure this out, I'd appreciate it. My
brother's gonna kill me...
