+PeterUK MVC Posted October 15, 2014 MVC Share Posted October 15, 2014 DId you remember to plug in the classic forgotten 4 pin CPU power connector? It be 8 pin on this board but worth suggesting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hum Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 it will just POST [w/ dead battery], but with default settings and say the date/time needs to be config'd This has happened to me, 3 times over the years. The desktop would not POST until I replaced the CMOS battery. Your motherboard may be different. T3X4S 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sikh Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 I have everything plugged in, Everything is seated correctly and no posted. I rma'd the board and ordered a new one. New board is here and after work I'm going to breadboard it and see how it goes tonight. If this new mobo doesnt post I'm going to rage and throw this entire think out of the window. But now realistically ill be clueless and come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmeunit Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 When I have the problem where pc fans work but I get no beep or display on screen, it has always been RAM problem. Can you try switching RAM to different sockets? It's been PSU issues for me. Different people get different symptoms and different results. It's best to hit all the parts you can that you have spares for or can borrow. Then buy what you need. EDIT: Glad it's working! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conna Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Reseated RAM with more pressure. Nothing. Finally got a speaker and attached it to the mobo. No beeps at all. I took ram out, no memory error beeps. I left ram in no post beep. NO BEEPS AT ALL. So I tried a different PSU, and nothing. Im concluding its a bad motherboard and I have returned it. Got a different one from amazon on its way tomorrow. I can say out of the 50+ computers i've been in the last 5 years, I've never had a DOA Mobo. I had the same experience as you. I had three systems I was building at the time and thankfully I could swap out the CPU/PSU/RAM as a test. Concluded it was the motherboard and Now I am waiting for the RMA process to send me a new working board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
