Hi guys!

I recently set up my first rig by myself. it worked fine, until now.

So whats the problem?
I've put my own pc together 5 months ago, and never had any problems.
But today, i was playing a game, went to grab a drink and came back to see that my pc rebooted and is now stuck on the bios boot screen (dont know what its called) so i have no idea what happened when i was gone.

so i opened up my case and saw that my boot device led is burning red.

ive looked on google, and couldnt find a solution.
i tried disconnecting all my sata cables, and switching them arround.
i tried removing my graphcis card, and ram memory.
i also pressed my mem ok button a few seconds to reset my bios.
and ive cleared my CLRTC by moving the cap to the right 2 pins, and putting it back.

but no luck..

The other threads i find about this problem are about new pc's, that when put together dont boot at all.. but mine worked fine, until now.

is it possible for the mobo to go bye bye in such short time?
i never updated my bios from usb, so that might be the problem. but i cant access my bios at all at this moment. My mouse and keyboard dont work either.

i hope you guys can help me out here, im clueless.

my rig:
AMD FX8350
sabertooth 990fx mobo,
120gb ssd
2t hdd
Geforce 660gtx TI
750w psu from ocZ
and 16 gigs of ram.


im not sure if thats enough information to give you an idea what could be the problem.

many many thanks in advance, having the worst day ever :(

I don't have another psu here. But i was able to enter the bios with a p2 keyboard, but the sata connectors and the usb port's do not seem to work.. so im pretty sure it must be a defect on the motherboard, right? can this be caused by a faulty psu? because i do not want this to happen again when i have a new one. i heard some bad things about the psu brand i'm using (ocZ).

thanks for the response
