i got home from work this morning and decided to take the computer apart like suggested, only after removing the mobo from the case did i find this on the back........

im guessing this is why it wouldnt start up or even connect to a tv vga or hdmi?

ive ordered a new mobo now(not second hand) but i want to know might i have done this? all i did was fit the mobo and power it up once without cpu and gfx card etc to see if i got the fans/front bay cables right? or it could have been like this when i bought it considering it only cost £10 =/ what a waste
 
it was kind of sold as spares or repair but not because it was faulty, the seller stated that he didnt have time to check everysingle motherboard he was selling(at the time it was over 30 i think) so he was selling it like that. i have sent him a message and he said nobody else has had problems, im a bit ****ed off due to being skint already and i dont want to potentially risk breaking my new parts i got for it.
 
oh they where!, no like i say it prolly happened before i got it, i didnt smell burning or anything when i started it up, and it didnt shoot fire from the fans!
 
yes, that was before i got my other parts, and it all worked, the fans, leds, dvd, hdd etc all powered up and worked, so when i got my cpu and graphics i fitted them and it still powered up...it just didnt connect to a tv through vga or hdmi, i couldnt try dvi or a computer monitor.
 
the whole thread is about not getting a signal when i connected it to two different tvs, both vga and 1 hdmi, did you miss that part? =)
