    I am running a new machine with the following components:
    MSI A55M-P33 motherboard
    AMD A6 5400K processor
    Radeon HD7770 graphics card with monitor plugged into DVI port
    2x Crucial Ballistix Sport 4GB memory (Memory Model BLS4G3D1339DS1S00)
    WD15EARS-FR 1.5TB hard drive
    Thermaltake TR2 600W PSU

    I am getting no video signal, and no beeps. I can't tell if the BIOS is starting, since I can't see anything.

    Everything seems to be plugged in correctly, and everything powers on. I've tested the video card and monitor (and using the same PSU and hard drive) with another motherboard (ASUS M3A76-CM with AMD Phenom 9600 processor and 1x KVR800D2N6/2G memory), and it works just fine.

    I've also tried with no video card (plugging directly onto the VGA port on the motherboard), and with only one stick of RAM, and still get nothing.

    I had this same problem before, and requested a replacement A55M-P33 motherboard, but am having the same issue with the new one. Is this one defective as well, or am I missing something?

    So, it won't go on with a different video card, and your saying the onboard doesn't work either? sounds like that make and model of motherboard by MSI is
    defective..

    Turns out the FM2 processor is not compatible with the FM1 motherboard.
