I've assembled a PC for myself, but just when I wanted to plug-it to my display I discovered that my display has only DVI and VGA port and the motherboard has only HDMI and DisplayPort. Long story shot, I cannot connect the display. The motherboard doesn't have a speaker, I plugged in a PS/2 keyboard and tried Num-Lock and it works the Num-Lock LED goes on and off.
Does the fact that taping Num-Lock works means that the PC is OK? Is that enough to say that the PC is correctly assembled!
1Buy an HDMI to DVI converter to make sure, or maybe connect the TV. – shinzou – 2017-03-11T14:45:45.717
Most modern PCs have a LCD screen or LEDs for self tests - as long as they light up and go off in the correct order, or a sensible one is lit (like boot failure) you should be dfine. – Journeyman Geek – 2017-03-11T14:51:54.537
