Hi all. This is my first ever build and I'm a total noob when it comes to computers so I know very little. As a result of this a red boot_device_LED has totally bemused me because I have no idea what could be wrong or what can fix it. I'll try and explain what's going on in as much depth as I can:
When the computer is fired up, first a red RAM light appears but then disappears, followed immediately by the VGA light lighting and then going off, with the boot_device_LED appearing afterwards. When I plug out the CPU power supply, none of these LEDs come on, but the fans don't spin. Is this normal or is there a problem with the CPU/power supply?
My specs are:
ASUS Z170-A motherboard
15 6600K processor
Corsair H55 cooler
Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB DDR4 RAM
Palit GEFORCE GTX 1060 graphics card
Corsair CX600W power supply
Seagate 1TB hard drive
Samsung 120GB SSD
My case is a phanteks P400 too if that helps
Thanks guys, I'm totally at a loss and in need of a hug haha
