Ive tried almost every possible solution there is for this, and none of them seem to work for me. Ive tried:
- Making sure CPU and cpu fan are plugged in properly
- Double checking if i screwed all my standoffs
- Pressing reset
- Pressing MemOK button
- Booting with no hard drive/ssd
- Booting with hard drive/ssd in different slots
- Booting with no graphics card
- Booting with no ram
- Booting with 1 x 8GB
- Booting with 2 x 8GB
- Booting with mouse and keyboard
- Booting with no peripherals
- Booting with Windows 10 on USB
- Booting with Windows 7 on usb disc reader (with and without peripherals)
- Pressing ESC/Del during POST
- Unplugging and replugging power supply
- Hard resetting the motherboard
- Using different HDMI ports
- Using motherboard HDMI port
- Using a different HDMI cable
- Using a different monitor
- Waiting endlessly while looking for a solution

I can't help but can say that I have same problem using ASUS Z170-PRO and I m trying to fix it, if I manage to do it I will give my solution, have you tried clearing CMOS and then starting it without any drive, this is what I plan to do next so you might save me trouble

Here's exactly how I fixed it, I plugged my HDMI cable to the furthest most left port on my Graphics card. Then, once I saw that I had something shown on my screen, I plugged my Motherboard disk through an external disk reader, then pressed F8 right after I restarted the system by pressing reset. I picked my usb boot that had Windows 10 on it, installed it, and the rest is fixed.

Sadly I don't have GPU or disk reader, anyway I called support today and they said that for my problem it is probably bad motherboard and suggested me to contact seller for return.
