Hi Y'all.
Yesterday I installed the ASUS F2 A85-V Pro using the FSP Hexa Series HE 500 ATX PSU, and I'm having issues with the mainboard not powering up if both ATX power connectors are plugged in.
Specifically, if the EATXPWR and EATX12V connectors are plugged in, the mainboard won't even power up. If I leave the EATX12V coupling unplugged the mainboard does come online but nothing else...no BIOS nor even the monitor wakes up.
In reading the F2 A85-V Pro user guide it states the board won't boot unless the EATX12V is connected.
My question to this forum is in hopes that some of you have experience with this mainboard and can tell me if you've connected both the EATX12V and EATXPWR connectors (both listed as #1 in the user guide) powering up the mainboard to the BIOS level?
Additionally, my ATX PSU is rated 80+ Efficiency with a peak power of 550W. The F2 user guide says the PSU needs only 450W.
Any tips, thoughts, suggestions, etc., are greatly needed and appreciated.
Thanks.
Cole
