I recently bought an Nvidia 6100 motherboard with an athlon64 x2 processor and wired it all up to find that when I turn it on the fans go and the drives work but there’s no signal to the monitor. Also, when the 4 pin plug from the power unit is plugged in and the computer is on, there is an infinitley repeating tone and the CD drives work, and when it’s not connected theres no tone but the drives don’t work (by that I mean just open and close). I dont think its a monitor problem as the keyboard and mouse lights don’t flash when I turn it on and the monitor works on other computers. I’ve tried it with different power units and no change. And I dont know if it makes a difference but im not using a graphics card.
I’ve never wired up a motherboard before so I’m hoping its just some stupid mistake I’ve made and not a dud board…
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
