OK so I just got finished building this computer and ive tried everything. The specs:
case-http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006CSKMKW/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Graphics card-Intel 4400 integrated AND/OR Nvidia GTS 450 Galaxy
CPU-Intel core i3 3.4ghz 4130 LGA 1150
mobo-http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D12OASW/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
PSU-Logisis Corp 550 Watt
RAM-used micron 4gb stick (sold from a 100% seller that sold 2 of em (1x4gb of 1600mhz)
Ok, so what happens is when I try to boot the computer up, all the fans spin up, including the CPU fan (stock fan/heatsink) and the power button light comes on but the reset button light around the button blinks red. It does that the moment I power on and it keeps doing that. I couldnt find a light on the motherboard that lit up. Before you ask, I have done all the PREFORM THESE STEPS before making this post- I have
-plugged in the 8 pin CPU power plug
-Tried booting up from both integrated and dedicated, and I get nothing on the monitor(s) that I tried (DVI and VGA)
-Used only 1 RAM stick (thats all that I have)
-Tried the RAM stick in all 4 slots there is
-CPU fan was plugged in because it works
-Im next to certian that I installed the CPU right. No pens were bent im pretty sure of that. It was bought new from tigerdirect off amazon
-I have indeed installed all the standoffs...i think...
-I didnt install the beep speaker because I couldnt figure out where it went
-pretty sure its not my psu. Worked on my last system and im pretty sure this one takes less power then the last just cause the last consisted of more older and less efficient parts.
Thank you for helping me.
