Oh man, you can tell it has been a while since I built a PC!

Thank you.  Graphics card ordered.

When using an Athlon CPU on any FM2+ motherboard you need to use a discrete graphics card.

I've just put together the following machine:

ASRock A68M-ITX 
AMD Athlon X4 860K
Kingston HyperX Fury 8gb (2x4gb) DDR 1866MHZ 
Thermaltake Core V1 Mini ITX Case
EVGA 430w Power Supply

When I boot the machine up I get a black screen and 5 beeps the speaker (internal post speaker for testing).  The only thing I can find on the website is that 5 beeps means it is without a VGA card which is confusing is it has a built in one.  Am I missing something obvious or is the board a duff?

Thanks in advance for any help!
