Cool
No screen display, no boot, but fans spin

I just set up a new pc with a P4M900-M7SE Biostar motherboard and 512MB of memory. The PC starts when turned on, but there is no beep, no display on the mother even though the CPU fan and Powersupply fan spin.
Can anyone help?

Make sure you plugged in both power slots for the motherboard.

512M on a new build?

Check your video card and memory - reinserted both and check the front panel wires for audio

if your running a dedicated Video card (in one of the expansion slots), make sure the monitor cable is plugged into it & not the video output for the motherboard. that mobo has onboard Video, (might even have to disable onboard in the motherboards BIOS)

if you built the system yourself; make sure the motherboard is not grounded.

Same Problem here - any final answers?

I have the same problem. New mobo, new memory, new power supply, new cpu. Fans power up nicely, but no video, no audio (from internal speaker).
