I built a new system using an MSI A88X-G45 board, AMD A8 chip (3.3Ghz), Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB 2400MHz RAM, and a Samsung 840 series 256GB SSD. I built the exact same configuration a month ago and had no problems. I'm using the onboard video out HDMI to a 65" TV.
After assembling everything, I entered to bios and set up my boot configuration, CD then HDD. I then dropped the Win 7 disc in an rebooted. Win 7 went through the process of asking where I wanted it installed, and then started installing. During the first 30 seconds, I got a BSOD. Computer stayed that way for 30 minutes and never shut down. I manually shut it down and tried to restart. Nothing.
I don't believe this board has a speaker and neither does my case, so I've never heard a POST beep. I see the debug LED shows "91", which my research suggests means to clear the CMOS,. I removed the power cable, battery and all components from the board except the processor and cooler. I reinstalled the battery, and the power cable an restarted with no RAM or HDD. Still "91" and no video output. Tried clearing it again and reinstalled a single stick in slot 1 and the HDD. restarted again... Still "91" and nothing.
Any suggestions?
