• Hardware 
  Ensure hardware connect properly first.
  (1). Check VGA card 
  Try to only plug one VGA card in PEX16_1 (long yellow slot) directly without riser card => Check whether display
  
  (2). Check Riser card 
  Try to plug VGA card with only one riser card to test per PEX1 and PEX16_1 => Check whether display.
  
  (3). Check CPU socket Pin
  Remove CPU and check CPU Socket pin whether bent.(If bent , might be no power on or no display.
  
  (4). Check Riser Card and VGA card power are connected properly.
  
  (5). Refer Mining Guide to deploy Rig : https://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/event/crypto_mining/page4_2.htm
