Hello, I am new to the forum but I seriously need some help with this new build I am attempting to put together. MB will not POST, it cycles through the boot process with each QLED lighting up, but the green BOOT_DEVICE LED stays lit and the BIOS beep is one long and four short beeps indicating "hardware component failure". Here's the set up:
Asus Rog Strix x370 F AM4 socket motherboard
AMD Ryzen 7 1700 w/ stock fan
120gb sandisk ultra ssd
2x4gb ballistix ddr4 2400mhz ram dual channel
Radeon 480rx
EVGA supernova 850watt G2 gold
I have gone through the 31-step no post checklist several times, and replaced every part, even used anti static strap.
First, replaced the ram as the original was quad channel, not dual channel.
Then I replaced the original ssd with the sandisk, then tried a new psu,
I tried a different GPU than the 480 (R9 270x).
I eventually settled on a dead mobo so I got a new one, got the same LED and bio code. Only one thing left so I replaced cpu, got the same problem. I have no clue what else to try.
I contacted ASUS before replacing the mobo and they basically recommended everything in the checklist. After a couple emails they said the mobo was likely faulty so I replaced it and the problem remains. I'm pretty frustrated and fed up at this point, any help would be greatly appreciated! Anyone else had a similar situation? Thanks!
