Pkay Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Parts List CPU - Intel Core i7 11700K 8 Core LGA 1200 3.6Ghz CPU Processor Mother Board - MSI Z590-A Pro LGA 1200 ATX Motherboard GPU - ROG-STRIX-GTX1060-O6G-GAMING RAM - Kingston HyperX 32GB (2x16GB) HX432C16FB3AK2/32 Fury RGB 3200MHz DDR4 RAM Storage - Samsung 500GB 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD My PC won't boot when i have my GPU plugged in. If i remove my GPU and plugged my display cable into my mother board it boots. The GPU works as I have taken it out of my old PC and put it into my new one, I have also tried putting the GPU in the second PCIe slot and changed my power supply. I have changed my ram and launched my pc without my SSD, instead using my old hard drive. I have removed the cmos and reset my bios settings and still nothing works. After a small amount of research i have come to the conclusion that my mother board PCIe slot is broken as there have been similar issues with the Z590. If anyone has any advice that would be amazing. Thanks in advance ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensi Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Strange issue on a somewhat newer machine.. What bios version are you on? Latest release for your mobo is, 7D09v118(Beta version) 2021-04-13.. Could be worth a try 🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindovermaster Moderator Posted April 18, 2021 Moderator Share Posted April 18, 2021 Do you have a spare GPU? Can you test putting that end? Looks like you changed everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim K Global Moderator Posted April 18, 2021 Global Moderator Share Posted April 18, 2021 Clarify "won't boot." Does this mean that you get display but it hangs at boot screen or does this mean it turns on but you do not get display at all? Does your EZ Debug display anything? CPU - indicates CPU is not detected or fail. DRAM - indicates DRAM is not detected or fail. VGA - indicates GPU is not detected or fail. BOOT - indicates booting device is not detected or fail. What happens (with the 1060 inserted) if you move the display cable to the motherboard? Does it boot? Odd issue. I'm guessing you don't have any other cards (GPUs or other PCIe cards) that you can plug into those slots. I would also be leaning towards a failure of the PCIe slots ... though unusual that both failed (one is fed by the CPU...the other from the chipset) while the mobo is otherwise working properly.

Mindovermaster Moderator Posted April 18, 2021 Moderator Share Posted April 18, 2021 Dumb question, but did you connect the power cords to the GFX card? You never mentioned that... goretsky 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I was going to ask about power supply in general - no specs mentioned. Pkay 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellowalkman Reporter Posted April 18, 2021 Reporter Share Posted April 18, 2021 Not really sure TBH but could be a faulty motherboard. Like either the PCIe slot is the problem or maybe the BIOS isn't recognizing dedicated graphics. Could be something else too. Pkay 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is very unlikely. However, we're short on options here. So.. 😕 Edit: OP, do you have another desktop, or perhaps a friend's that you can test your GFX card on? That will vary out your GFX card. If it works fine on his/your system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i am currently using my GFX card on my current build and it works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The VGA light on my mother board fturns on for 3-5 seconds then turns off. My PC boots but i don't get any display at all, i currently think i need to get a new mother board as i have but all the other parts into my old build besides the cpu as it's an AMD board.

Doesn't matter if it's an AMD CPU, bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be best to just RMA the board. Very weird though ... would have been curious if you got video out from the motherboard with the 1060 plugged in .. and what Windows showed in device manager for said 1060. Surely Page 15 is set to Auto and Page 17 is set to PEG? http://download.msi.com/manual/mb/Intel500BIOS.pdf 57 minutes ago, Mindovermaster said: Doesn't matter if it's an AMD CPU, bro. He moved everything to his old AMD build, except the Intel CPU (because duh), and everything works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaredsusan Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I am having the exact same issuse. Motherboard turns on with out gpu. As soon as I install gpu power supply will not turn on. Some kinda short? Or cross connection im guessing . Will post more if I figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helpifIcan Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Make sure the weight of the board or just pushing it in is not bowing the MB and shorting against the case. Might be a missing standoff or one that has become misaligned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
