supershanks Posted November 4, 2005 Posted November 4, 2005 That's better I'd try stripping back a bit unplugging everything except CPU. The clear cmos using Here is the 'official' DFI way of clearing the CMOS: Then add a single memory module module in slot 2 & gfx card & kb & see if you can get it to post & so into the bios. luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrdp Posted November 4, 2005 Posted November 4, 2005 ok moved jumpers to reset, removed battery, went for a smoke, came back, put it all back. Press power button and DUN DUN DUNNNNNNN....nada love the feeling when you have all the parts, ready to go excited to start gaming and cant do a thing. :sad: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v355/sca...reammachine.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v355/sca...eammachine8.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v355/sca...eammachine9.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
supershanks Posted November 4, 2005 Posted November 4, 2005 lol all that exitement & a bad movie, know what u mean. Your using power button omn mobo yep?? Can u confirm that 4pin 12v is plugged in can't pick it out in pic. went for a smoke - don't just stopped cold turkey on the nicotine gum a beer is better 4 u :nod: Are you getting any led activity you want to remove CPU & repeat above clear cmos with nothing attached then means you'll need to clean the old paste of & reapply. another bad scene. If nothing then may be worthwhile unplugging your psu attaching a fan & shorting it just to see if it starts. have a pic of how but its only a 20pin but it shows the how PSU Test Use 24 pin oin out for reference to which pins to use.

J-Pepper Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I've had exactly the same problem... but wasn't a new build. One day, the first time I come to switch it on and nada! no lights no nothing... Nothing has been tampered with, there have been no shorts and no power spikes... then tried for ages randomly pressing the power on.. and running around blaming people for touching my computer and then randomly it starts up after I press the switch and started up as normal... ??? Now it's done it again, but this time, it's not starting up at all??? wtf is up with this board?? Does anyone have any idea as i'd hate to have to strip everything down and RMA it...

lowboy Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Could be PSU just has bad switch. Next time it happens remove cables from mobo and jumper the psu and see if it runs and check voltage with DMM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrdp Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 ok so from last time I posted I removed the battery and reset jumper for cmos while I was out. About 6 hours. Jumped teh psu seems to run fine and just found out its got a blue led fan...wwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ok back to topic....ahem... Pressed power button on mobo and...nada. Think I got some over priced coasters and table mats atm. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v355/sca...mmachine011.jpg Finally took a better pic showing the 4pin plug directly beside 24 pin.
