If the display isn't working, how do you know the mouse and keyboard aren't working?

The mouse at the bottom is not showing red, because it does that what it starts up, My keyboard the 3 blue lights showing Caps lock, Num Lock and Scroll lock dont flash and that normaly flashes when its starts up.

Remove all power to the machine and reseat all connections...

If this produces no joy-joy then borrow a PSU of the same or greater wattage and swap it in there...

Usually mounted at the top rear of the case on a Desktop...
As i said though ...borrow one instead of buying...in case it's not the culprit.
