Hey TTG. I just got my first components for my first build. Now i am very clueless to PC's, but i know that you save tons of money and you can upgrade which is what im looking for. I ordered the motherboard, case , Graphics Card, power supply, and optical drive. I know i should've ordered the rest but i had only so much cash and wanted to get the deals. All im missing is the CPU, RAM, and HDD. I ran the computer ( this is where the noobness came in) hoping that i could at least see a BIOS and the few beeps. I got nothing. Now i plugged everything in the right way, the USB etc, but the front lead plugs im having trouble with.Some problems im worried about are as followed:
1. My power on/off switch will turn the computer on, but not off.
2. When i hit the reset button the computer doesnt do the "stop for half a second and boot back up" as i think is should.
3. When plugged in using a HD cord nothing on the screen shows up.
4. The PLED( power led lights)dont turn on even though they're plugged in right.
Basically. Should this happen without: RAM, CPU, and a HDD.
Parts(currently owned)
Case- APEVIA X-SUPRA G-Type
MotherBoard-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131860
VideoCard-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202004
Power Supply- [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

If you can think of anything please post below.
Thank You

TheHeadElf12 wrote HardCore noob xD but basically everything is okay?The Cpu and RAM are required to start up to bios. After that, yes, everything is okay.
