Hello everyone,
First of, thanks for the information on this forum! I smoked my old motherboard after some sweat got on it. Then got a Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3P. Put in case, connected everything. Some leds and then 0.
So on this forum I found "perform steps posting post boot video problems" (http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/s/perform+steps+posting+post+boot+video+problems/ ). This way found out that my PSU was broken (under powered) en first 2 memory slots are broken or need to be set to 2.1V (OCZ memory voltage) (Beeps helped me too, but mostly the post).
All set and don, I was running. Well HDD data was damaged, but I got in to windows on a USB stick and was recovering data. Then after 10 minutes black screen.
Current problem
I started with "perform steps posting post boot video problems" again. Now my problem is next thing. Motherboard with CPU and fan connected with PSU connections will give 1 sec power to fans and 1 LED. Then only 1 orange LED will light up and that's it. (So no loop of rebooting, what I had before with the bad PSU).
Then I removed the 8 pin socket connector and tried again (don't know if that's smart but I did) and system will stay on, all CPU LEDs light up and one green LED will light up. CPU fan will not turn. (Tried this all with G-card, mem, HHD connected too, all same).
Once I put back the 4 or 8 pin socket connector, system will go back to orange LED.
So is it bad:
Plz help! Have 4 CPUs, 2 G cards and 6 memory banks here now. Cost me loads and still no working system.
