I've installed all of the components but the graphics card is not working. Everything turns on except the graphics card. There's no screen either.

Specs are : Intel i7 860
Asus Maximus III Formula
Geil Ultra 4GB RAM
GTX 285


Need quick replies!!!
 
This is my first new build. I will re-seat the graphics card and how do you check if the ram is working. There is no beeps or nothing, however, the computer itself powers up but no screen. Anyone got any tutorials on how to fit an Nvidia graphics card ?

EDIT- how do I reset the cmos?

It will tell you in the motherboard manual how to reset the CMOS, but it'll be a jumper or switch on the motherboard you need to use, make sure it's powered off when you do, it'll give you insstructions in the manual anyway.

If this is a new build, then you've not had it working before I take it ?

Have you connected the 12v cpu power feed to the motherboard ? ...it'll be an 8 pin connector on that Asus, that connects to a socket near the cpu socket.

Check the memory too, make sure it's properly seated and in the correct slots for running dual channel with 2 sticks.

It does boot up though and I think I have seated the ram correctly. I will try to post pics up and if this does not continue to work I think I need someone over to take a look. This is really infuriating.
