What motherboard, cpu and memory do you have?

Generally, if you have no GPU's, you plug the monitor into the "video out" of the motherboard.  Once you add a GPU, even if it is on a riser, you plug into the GPU.

There is no onboard video, so I probably need to put 1 GPU on the main board for the first boot and drive installation I'm guessing.

I am not sure what is wrong. Do I need to have at least 1 GPU on the main board or my display connected to the on board video or is it supposed to work if I plug my monitor into one of the GPU's even though it is on one of the x1-x16 risers?

I don't see the monitor reacting at all when I boot the system and the motherboard gave me some error code for memory
