Motherboard not firing

jhendry1987 · Dec 11, 2013

Hi all, Just so you know i am not the most pc literate, I have a desktop with a GA-H61M-D2-B3 motherboard and intel i5 processor, 750w psi, 8gb ddr3 memory 1600mhz and 2x 250gb data 7200 rpm drives..I bought these separately and put it together but it won't fire..i have tested the memory in separate desktop and it works fine…hard drives work ok too…The fans go to spin and then it doesn't fire. i am going out of my mind with this as my previous motherboard i think had an issue with the pci/e slot as i couldn't get a signal.
Thanks in advance

Some CPUs require a newer BIOS version.

What CPU using? Is the CPU fan spinning when starting the board?
Using a graphics card or the onboard?

A defective PSU would certainly cause such issues. If I may, I would recommend you consider a quality PSU from Seasonic, Corsair, or XFX when you replace the one you have now.

Good luck!
