   Hey guys, I just did my first build after 10 some years... the computer isn't booting up! (using a HDMI connection.  what happens when I turn it on is, it'll run, then it'll restart, then just stays on running. NZXT S340 case
 Asrock Z170 gaming k4 mother board
 DDR4 3200 16gb corsair ram
 Intel Kaby Lake 3.4ghz 7500 i5 processor 
 EVGA 650W GQ PSU Hyper 212 CPU cooler

I have everything wired up correctly, the stand ups are in the right places, the CPU is mounted up correctly, the ATX 8 pin is plugged in, the 24 pin is plugged in. but its not booting up! (can't see anything on my screen when I boot it) I tried updating the bios to 7.10 but again, nothing comes up on my screen. what am I missing?!!!??? :(
