Hi, just put together a new build and having no luck at all with it,

- i5
- Asus Maximus III Formula MB
- 4 GB Geil Ultra Series
- Sapphire 5850

It was posting and got halfway through installing windows, now it seems to be doing nothing at all. With the Antec 1200, there seems to be no case speaker to plug into the MB for the startup beeps if something is wrong, i dont know what i should do about this. Also i just wana check that the 5850 requires 2 6 pin power supply leads. Apart from this im completely stumped, but im not very experienced so i hope someone here can help.

Ah, i just found that near to the cpu, the 2nd motherboard power connection there was only 4 pin showing so i put a 4 pin connecter, but there is another 4 pins covered by a piece of plastic, should i remove this piece and put an 8 pin power lead in here?
