Hello everyone,
Today I've done 2 EXACT builds:
Gigabyte GA-Z97P-D3 Intel Z97 SK1150 - MOTHERBOARD
Corsair VS-550W 12cm
Kingston DDR3 HyperX FURY White 4GB 1866MHz Cas10
Gigabyte Radeon R9 270X Windforce OC 2GB DDR5 PCI-E
Intel Core I5 4460 3.2GHz (3.4GHz Turbo) 6MB BOX
Seagate Barracuda 1TB SATAIII 64MB (6GB/s)
1 of the builds is running great but the other 1 ran into a problem:
After putting up all the pieces together when I tried to boot it up the computer wouldnt start:
the fan spin for about 10 sec and then it auto shut-down. After trying a couple times more I've decided to check hardware :
-Pull out cmos battery, wait around 15 minutes, and put it back in - Failed
-Change RAM position - Failed
-Tried other PSU ( exact model ) - Failed
-Tried other CASE due to STANDOFF'S question - Failed
And this is where I messed up everything:
I've decided to pull out the CPU Fan and CPU itself to make sure they're well connected. after pulling out the CPU I've noticed there was a pin slightly bent so with a needle and very careful I managed to put it more or less like the others. I put back the CPU and CPU Fan again and booted the computer. The computer finnally booted. I plugged in the O/S pen drive to format the hdd but after it restarted 2 times it crashed while loading windows and now its back again to the " 10 sec fan spin " cycle.
Is the motherboard broken?
Looking foward to see some feedback on my problem, meanwhile, if I get to find out the awnser I'll post it.
Thank you everyone
