Hello,
I just bought the mobo, CPU and RAM to upgrade my computer.
First of I installed all components as described in the manuals.
Result: everything gets powered (fans start blowing, indicator leds go on), but after a few seconds everything shuts down. After that it starts again and this cycle keeps repeating.
So I double checked every connection I made, but all was as it should be.
After this, I followed the troubleshooting from the mobo manual:
disconnect all, check for short circuits with chassis and try again.
There were no short circuits to be found, but just to be safe, I put everything on a cardboard plate.
Even when only the CPU and cooler were installed it resulted in the same as before: the endless power on, power off cycle.
So today I've been searching the internet for similar problems.
The closest I came, was someone with the same CPU, similar RAM and same mobo but REV 1.0
He had the same problem I had and solved it by removing the CMOS battery.
So I tried the same, but the problem continues. (I also tried the 'clear CMOS' jumper)
Is there a way to verify if the mobo functions correctly?
Because it doesn't look damaged.
Or is there something else I could try, to get everything going?
While I wait for an answer, I'll take out the battery again, maybe I didn't wait long enough (took it out for little over half an hour and performed the short circuit action as instructed in the manual).
with kind regards,
Filip.
edit: just retested PSU on former mobo and it still works fine...
