Computer won’t boot after bios

upstairscoffee5 · Jan 22, 2018

I’m having issues with my computer, Ryzen 5 1600
Msi b350 tomahawk plus
Corsair vengeance ddr4 2400
Msi gaming x 1060 6gb

When I turn it on everything lights up but it doesn’t display. I know that the hdmi cable works and so does my monitor. I’m able to get into the bios if I reseat the cpu but if I try to boot normally it shuts down and I have to reseat it again to get into the bios again. Every debug light will briefly show up then go away before getting into bios. The bios says everything is there yet when I try to boot normally it will shut down and I have to try again like stated before. Help!

new build? or your old pc just suddenly died on you?

It is an upgrade to my old pc. Nothing was wrong with the old one

marksavio · Jan 22, 2018

then which parts did you upgrade?

upstairscoffee5 · Jan 22, 2018

Everything but the hard drive (and the case- like it matters)

marksavio · Jan 22, 2018

so you didnt do a fresh windows reinstall when you used your harddrive on your new pc right? you just plugged it right in?

Didn’t get a fresh install before disassembling. Could that be the problem? How could I do that now?

just bootup ur old rig. and download the win10 installer from the site below. use your usb to boot install win10 on your new rig.

you can go to the site below and follow instructions there. prepare a usb drive (at least 8GB) or write into a DVD with the ISO file.

as for your license, you will need to follow the instructions here

I don’t have all the components from my old pc... could I do it from a different computer?

marksavio · Jan 23, 2018

yes you can. if you can connect your HDD to that different computer (SATA cable or USB to SATA adapter), you will need to do the following to retrieve your license if you lost your license key.

Okay, I’ve still got the key as well as the flash drive from when I bought windows. Also, how could this affect my issue with having to reseat the cpu every time I want to get into the bios?

marksavio · Jan 23, 2018

you must always install windows properly on a new motherboard. thats the basic of it. or you wouldnt have to do teh unorthodox of reseating yoru CPU everyt time in the first place.

Other part related things are,
Did you do a clear cmos? After that load the optimized default values.
Put the ram in the second and fourth slot from the cpu,might try one stick at a time in the second.
Looked at the cpu for bent pins? (enough tutorials online)
Updated the bios to the latest?

upstairscoffee5 · Jan 24, 2018

It seems I can’t even get into the bios now

upstairscoffee5 · Jan 24, 2018

What should the boot order be?

Vic 40 · Jan 26, 2018

Well bootdisk first,then usb,then if having it dvd.
