[quote title=Jeep Rubi wrote on Fri, 10 August 2007 12:09]What's a P4 plug? Is it the 4 pin connector for the CPU, if it is then yes, that's plugged in.

This is the PSU:

Ive taken all the memory out and attempted it that way, from what I hear it should still do something onscreen to tell you that you have no memory.


No, it wouldn't show anything if you don't have memmory the motherboard will make some noise, or most likly beeps.

I don't think I can try my old PSU because its only a 300W so it wouln't have a chance at running this.


If it has a p4/24pin atx then you can just attach the motherboard to it and leave the new PSU just for GFX

It didn't come with a booklet, but the online manual doesn't mention anything about lights.


That's odd, ask someone on EVGA forums, as Im sure a tech there knows what it means

I have the board and everything layed out on my desk on top of an anti-static bag and have been starting it with a screwdriver for tests.

Nothing is working, my theory is that the motherboards 4 pin power connection is faulty so the CPU isn't getting power. That could explain why absolutely nothing is showing up onscreen


It could be just a DOA.. everything can be broke even new stuff.

You could test it by using the 300Watt for motherboard ( if it has a P4 connector, connect it) and make the new PSU run the Graphics. Do this by connecting the black and green wire on the psu.
