Hi

Am building a new pc and cant get it too POST.

Fans and phase LED's on mbo come on for 1sec then go out for 3-4 s then this repeats.

Have unplugged all till just have mbo,cpu and cooler same deal.


Dont have spares to try can only think to take to shop and find which of the 3 (mbo,cpu,psu) arent working
unless any one else has some ideas ?

Is nice corsair 500w psu rated to 80% 5yr guarantee etc.

regards

Kirk

I had this problem too, with a P55-UD3R. Luckily my husband was also building a PC with the same parts, so we ended up trying the spare MOBO, and it worked. So, I would guess that it's the motherboard.
