Big motherboard issue!!

[richard11319]

I just recently put together a desktop computer with an ECS G43T-M motherboard with a Dual core 3.33 GHz processer, and 2x 2gb corsair RAM and an EVGA NVIDIA Geforce 9500GT with 512mb.

The problem seems to be that when I turn it on, everything has power, but there are no graphics showing up on the screen and the keyboard has no power but the mouse does. And its the same situation when I plug the mouse and keyboard through the PS/2 ports with converters (its a USB mouse and keyboard). Someone help me!!!!!

have you tried resetting cmos jumper? if not try that 1st, if that dont work get back with us

I reset the jumper and I still get the same problem.

try switching around your ram, take one out try to boot, take another one out try again to rule ram out

 

[richard11319]

I just ruled out RAM. Could it be a hard wire problem?

 

[zer0_c00l]

could be motherboard or videocard ...do you have another videocard lying around you could try?

 

[lovely?]

your motherboard has onboard video, try using that instead of the port on your video card.

already tried the onboard card. I was told by the manufacturer that the processer isn't compatible with the board. I have an E8600 intel wolfdale dual core. This is the link to the compatability list:

It says it supports the E8500 but not the E8600. very weird.
