Hello all,


I recently built this computer (~2 days ago) and everything was working fine. I was happily playing battlefield 4 on ultra settings with no issues whatsoever.


Earlier today I was using my computer to do a little coding, playing games, etc etc. I went to take a nap for about 3 hours and I left the computer running. There were no computationally intensive tasks going on at the time. I think I had word and chrome open.


When I went back to my computer to wake it back up nothing worked. The computer is on, the lights on the motherboard are on, the fans are all working but it won't even boot into BIOS or POST at all.

Here is the list of components: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/yMkW9W

What I have tried so far:

- Power cycling

- Taking out all the RAM and power cycling

- I tested the voltage on the CPU power cords, everything is a steady 12v

- Tried DVI, display port, HDMI in all ports to the display

- Unplugging the SSD and power cycling

- Taking out the graphics card and power cycling (when I first put everything together I tried to get the bios to boot with no graphics card and that didn't work then either)

- Took out the wifi adapter and power cycled

- Took out the CMOS, waited 10 mins, put it back in, power cycled



Any ideas? I'm at the end of my pitiful rope.

OK, first thing you should hear when you switch on the PC is a single beep, do you get this? If yes, let us know if not what do you hear, eg no beeps at all or multiple or changing beeps.
