CIPWTTKT&GC v0X12 (v18): Makol can't Computer Very Good - Hardware & Software

My primary hard drive crashed like a month ago :( I am stuck on a 40gb IDE drive.

Just built my first computer, and I'm waiting for the RAM to come in the mail tomorrow. Got everything else hooked up, but when I connect the GPU to the TV, the TV will say "no signal", which comes from the TV, not the GPU, which means the GPU isn't even outputting. However, when I hook the IGP on my motherboard to the monitor, it no longer says "no signal" but just shows pure blackness, which means it is outputting. Is this normal? For those rating me dumb, I know a computer needs RAM to run, but I'm wondering if you should still have video output if you have no RAM.

[QUOTE=Aloveoftheworld;34954411]How are you transmitting to the tv? Can i transmit by RCA calbe? (Red yellow white?) Or coax?[/QUOTE] The TV has a VGA port on the back. I don't know when they started putting those on the backs of TV's. You can hook a computer up with an HDMI cable too, or get an adapter or some shit, there's all kinds of ways to output computer to TV.

The king of questions is back. Earlier when I was building my computer, I put the CPU (LGA 1155) in and when I had everything aligned correctly, I heard a crackling sound as I pulled down on the lever. From what I could see it looked like all the pins were in. All is good correct? Looked up some shit on Google and it turned out it's normal. However if anyone would like to answer the question anyways, I would appreciate it.
