Hi folks,
I just bought a Gigabyte H110M S2 motherboard along with a Intel Core I3 7100. The motherboard does not support this CPU out of the box and needs a firmware upgrade to the latest version. Since this motherboard supports QFlash i assumed it can be done without the CPU.
Now i connect the main PSU connector and the additional CPU power connector the motherboard. I installed one RAM module (DDR4 8GB). Connected the keyboard (USB2.0) and monitor (DSUB). I also connected a fan to see if the board was getting power. The CPU is not connected as there i not point in doing that.
On Switching on the fan works fine, but the keyboard does not work nor do i get any display. I am expecting to see the BIOS screen.
Am i doing something wrong or does the board need to be RMAed?
Thanks
