My Monitor Won’t Detect PC No Signal

  • 10

So I just made my new gaming PC and I built it and everything, but my monitor will just stay in hibernation mode/orange light and I can’t get it to work together. Can you help??

Things I’ve tried:

Connecting VGA (monitor) to DVI (GPU)
Connect VGA (monitor) to VGA (Motherboard)
Remove GPU and Connect VGA (monitor) to VGA (monitor)

GPU: XFX 6790

  1. The motherboard speaker connection is usually 4 pins but only the end pins are used–1 and 4 if they were numbered. Some connections might just be 2 pins but either way it shouldn’t be difficult to fashion a connection. The manual should show the exact pins to connect the speaker to.

    Is the ‘splitter thing’ the wire pigtail assembly that goes to the LEDs and switches on the front panel? Often those won’t exactly match the motherboard connections and you have to carefully remove the wires from their plastic holders and position them differently in the holders.
