Could You take a look for the sticker on the BIOS chip? What version does it have? The Athlon II X4 840 i supported since BIOS 1.40: http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/FM2A58M-DG3+/?cat=CPU  I have highlighted the BIOS chip on this image, so You can find it more easily. If Your BIOS is any number bellow 1.40 - You have to flash it with a older and supported CPU/APU to get it to work. *Or You can mail ASRock TSD, and they will ship You a new BIOS chip with the latest BIOS!* If Your BIOS is 1.40 or up - You are good to procedure to the next step. So, do You have installed an motherboard post-speaker? If Yes, do You hear any beep sounds? Could You write down all of the components that You use? Is Your dedicated graphics card installed in the PCI-e slot? If not - You must - the Athlon II X4 840 does not have an on-board GPU. If yes - You must connect Your monitor cable to the dedicated GPU, not to the on-board connectors. Let me know if You need some more help. ------------- 990FX Extreme 9 MOD P1.70 AMD FX 8120 4GHz 1.25V Thermalright HR-02 Patriot Viper 2x4GB 2133MHz Samsung 850 EVO 250GB MSI R7970 TFIII 3GB CORSAIR VX550W LanCool K62 Dragonlord ASUS Xonar D2X |

3 short beeps? It could be a bad RAM. Clean up the DIMM slots with a tooth-brush, and the RAM connectors with an eraser-rubber. ------------- 990FX Extreme 9 MOD P1.70 AMD FX 8120 4GHz 1.25V Thermalright HR-02 Patriot Viper 2x4GB 2133MHz Samsung 850 EVO 250GB MSI R7970 TFIII 3GB CORSAIR VX550W LanCool K62 Dragonlord ASUS Xonar D2X |
