2-3.9 Troubleshooting at First Start Video (no display) related issues I built a new computer system using a Soyo board and nothing happens when turning it on, no video and no beeps from the PC speaker. What is happening and how can it be fixed? No screen and no beeps mean that your CPU and motherboard do not work at all.
5EH_2CA1 (meaning revision 2CA1 for the SY-5EH board) or 6BA+ IV_2AA2 which means SY-6BA+ IV motherboard with 2AA2 bios. Where can I find the latest BIOS of my motherboard? Please go to the technical support page of one of the SOYO websites www.soyo.com.tw (Taiwan: ), and look up your motherboard to find the latest BIOS revision.
Why? If you are sure that the modem driver has been installed correctly, then you need to install the south bridge driver from the SOYO CD, this is because Windows does not properly recognize relatively new chipsets.
