Going crazy, computer is here but having a issue with it not displaying any video output, took everything out and reseated everything, checked all the cords, plugs, etc and still no luck, on the phone with tech support, was fine when they shipped it. hopefully its a easy fix and i dont have to send it back.
lol, tried everything i can so far. the issue is on bootup no video output, and i am getting no beep codes.
there is no onboard video so i cannot go that route either to check the bios settings. ive reset the cmos and that isnt working either. still waiting on tech support to come up with something before i have to ship it back for them to fix it.
My usual troublshooting method at that point is to remove EVERYTHING except the bare minimum needed to make it boot. I.e. 1 CPU at memory (I don't recall if your board works in sets of 2 or 3).
If you don't at least get a beep, triple check the power connections (and silly stuff like the PS set to 110V not 220V.
Does your board have diagnostic LEDs anywhere? Does your CPU fan spin when you power it up? Do the drives spool up? (I'd disconnect them for my bare minimum test).
If you get a beep with pretty much everything disconnected, start adding things back in one at a time until it breaks again.
If it won't even beep with the bare minimum plugged in, it probably took a bad bump in shipping, which would totally suck.

First thing i checked
Does your board have diagnostic LEDs anywhere?
One LED in front, blinks red for a sec when i turn the power on then goes out
Does your CPU fan spin when you power it up?
Not sure, using a Asus Vapo System, dont know if its running or not
Do the drives spool up? (I'd disconnect them for my bare minimum test).
I can hear them and the DVD drive spooling up, ive done a bare minimum test as well with the same results

Yes it really sucks, dont see how it could take a bad bump, styrofoam packed around case, inside original case box, covered in bubble-rap, inside another box.
I have seen this before, even when using my own car to move from one LAN party to another.....
Mother board and sodier connection can break easy...
SOrry....
Thats the only thing i think can be wrong, it happened to be in transit during a cold front coming thru, dont know what else could be wrong with it at this point
