brand new build.
q6600
asus maximus formula
8800 gts 512
4 gb g skill pc6400
pc&p 750 watt silencer
500 gb seagate hdd
samsund dvd
I installed the MB and everything in the case and when i started it up everthing looks good. cpu init, mem etc.
I then get a "cmos err" on the lcd poster and then "en setup" and then the lcd poster gives the time.
I have power to everything, the fans are working, all the lights on the mb are green. I used the 24 pin power connector and the 8 pin<as opposed to the 4 pin, with 4 pins blocked> power connector for the motherboard.
nothing will display to the monitor, cant get into the bios. I do not have an OS installed yet. Im planning on using vista 64.
Is there a way I can tell what bios it has on it? I might need to upgrade it but the board is brand new this week.
I also tried moving the ram around, white slots, blue slots, one dimm then 2 dimm's.
if I do need to flash the bios please add a link showing me how or where to get it.
Im getting no response from the keyboard, whether usb or ps/2 connections. is that because I cant post??
Thanks for all of your help. If you need more info please ask.
