Hi,
I'm building this system from used parts (risky I know) and I finished the build, powered up and no post. I've tried all the basic things like resitting the cpu and only having one stick of RAM and the cpu and video card in but still nothing. I have also tried booting with an Nvidia card to see if my gpu was the problem. The funny thing is is that after trying rebooting many times, it randomly posted and I managed to get into the BIOS. But my elation was short lived as I've had no such luck after rebooting. Everything powers up fine and there is a green led on the mobo so power isn't an issue.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Part list:
Asus P5N-E SLI (Used)
Intel Dual core 2180 (Used)
1gb Crucial ddr2 ram (Used, I know works)
Corsair CXM 430W (New)
Asus ATI Radeon 6670 (Used, I know works)
Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1.5tb (Used, I know works)
