SY-K7VLM-B Quick Start Guide Quick Trouble shoot tips Video (no display) related issues I built a new computer system using a Soyo board and nothing happens when turning it on, no video and no beeps from the PC speaker. What is happening and how can it be fixed? No screen and no beeps mean that your CPU and motherboard do not work at all. It could be that the CPU is not seated correctly or that a component on the M/B is grounded (shorted) with the case.
SY-K7VLM-B Quick Start Guide Modem issues I have installed my modem drivers several times and I still cannot get my modem to work. Why? If you are sure that the modem driver has been installed correctly, then you need to install the south bridge driver from the SOYO CD, this is because Windows does not properly recognize relatively new chipsets. Audio Issues I do not get any sound from my sound card. What could be wrong? Please make sure the speaker is connected to the speaker out port on your sound card.
