Asus M5A99FX PRO R2.0 won't post.

Yet another person with this no post issue with this mobo. Everything powers up and the only red LED light I got was the boot device, but upon reading the manual I fixed that problem, but now all I get is a blank screen. This is a refurbished board, so I'm guessing it was perhaps already flashed to the new version. RAM is in the right slot, CPU light doesn't come on, nor do I get any prolonged beeps from the speaker. I thought this was going to be an easy and straight forward upgrade. The mobo supports all the components I have and it was the only thing I upgraded. Everything worked just fine with my Gigabyte 78LMT USB3. I needed expandability. Can someone help?

try the gpu in a different slot to rule out the slot.

try removing the ram, see if the ram lights comes on.

try removing the cpu to see if the cpu light comes on.

sometimes working backwards helps.

You need to do a clean install of Windows when you change the motherboard, otherwise you're bound to have issues.

getochkn, I'll try that when I get home.

Eduello, well, it was the first thing I was going to do once I installed everything, but how can I do that without an image on the screen?

So you can't even get to BIOS? If you manage to get to BIOS, you can change your boot settings so that the PC will boot from the DVD drive. Then all you have to do is insert the Windows installation disk.

Cool Master 500w power supply < You might want to try a quality power supply also.

Can't even get to the BIOS. This board offers a feature which you press and hold a small button near the front panel connectors on the mobo, it shuts your system down and once you press it again immediately after that it boots straight into the BIOS, BUT my problem is I get no screen at all.

The power supply I used worked for the previous mobo which i mentioned, and I didn't upgrade anything else but the board. Would I really need something with more wattage?

So I cleared the CMOS like the manual instructed and IT am now getting a boot error light, one Beep from the speaker which indicates VGA Detected, quick boot set to disabled and No Keyboard detected which i do have one plugged in. Still a blank screen.

So, turned out to be a bad DVI cable. I feel like a moron. Any who, thanks everyone!

Happy to help, although we really didn't
