My nephew has a gaming rig that was bought brand new. The red and orange ez debug lights are on and the keyboard is not on and the monitor has no display. Everything has been working fine. We were just powering it on a few times and the lights would go off and everything would work but it is not working now. Anyone have any idea? Also, I am not computer savvy at all. Just throwing that out there.

Do you have a link to what you bought? Knowing the hardware and, in the case of prefab, the manufacturer, helps a lot with diagnostics.

So I chose the parts I wanted and they assembled it. I know it is an MSI Pro motherboard, 1,000 watt Corsair power supply and an AMD Radeon 7900 XTX.

Your full specs should be in the email from the company (with an invoice, etc.) but one thing to see would be to connect your monitor to the onboard video instead of your video card. If it's the video card having issues, that may be active - and if you're comfortable, it may be a good idea to remove the video card and see if everything works. Then you could check drivers and the BIOS for any issues if it comes up; if not, then something else.

Any beeps when you power up?

I'd try reseating the memory modules.

Your mother board probably has four slots labeled: DIMMA1, DIMMA2, DIMMB1 AND DIMMB2. Remove all the memory modules. Put one stick in DIMMA2 and try to boot. If it doesn't boot, try a different stick in DIMMA2.

Try that and let us know what happens.

Simplest thing to try first is pull the power chord. Wait a 60 seconds, the reseat and try it again. A lot of time, the computers do not come back from stand-by mode and will do things like that, simply unplugging it forces everything to shut down.

Dust the inside, pull the ram and boot it. if there is no ram in it, the mother board should beep. Then reseat the ram.

The lights should have text next to them; what do the labels say?
