I wanted to upgrade my AM2/AM3 Asus M4A77TD Pro mobo to an AM3+ mobo ASRock 970 Extreme3 R2.0
So I remove my HD 7850 and Phenom II X3 720 to my old mobo and put it in the Asrock with 2 stick of 4Go mem
I don't plug any hdd, I switch the power on, all the fans works ( cpu, gpu and base ) but no display
and no beep ( my case have no internal speaker )
I thought it was the mobo who was DOA so I used a third one, an asus Extreme 4 and same thing
the fans are OK but no display
I plugged only 1 stick of memory , no change,I tested the memory on my old Asus mobo and it is recognized ok in the Bios and win7
I m using a 5 years old power supply FSP (Fortron) EVEREST 85PLUS 500 and 15 days ago , I noticed like a burned smell when I approached my desk.
I did not think about some pc components burned since my pc is working fine.
I also noticed that Win7 takes much more time to load and shutdown ( like 2 minutes ) than before
Could it be signs that while my PSU still works, but that the power output might not be enough to power up more recent mobo ?
