traveaso23 Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 I just built a FX-53 940 PIN on an ASUS SK8V. I got the ECC Registered Ram, i have everything hooked up right. But when i start it i get nothin. Nothin activates the monitor to start it up. Also my Reset Switch on the case doesn't work it won't shut down the computer when i hold it in for 5 seconds like it used too on my old board. Please any help would be great.

asus Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 do you have the power and reset buttons backward on your mobo??? does any fans spin ??? more info like that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
traveaso23 Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 The fans spin there is power to the MB. I took the CPU out to see maybe if there were bent pins they are fine no bent pins perfectly straight. I have checked like a 100 times to see if the POWER SW, RESET SW, PWR LED and HDD LED are hooked up right and they are. My vid card is fine it works i tried it in another system and works fine in there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolzero101 Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 Reset the bios, reasure a 101th time the reset switches are in correctly. Then if all else fails try the CPU in another pc. In these sorts of situations depending if you have another rig to test it in and your expertise you may want to take it to a computer shop that will cost 100$ to figure it out for you, i would never take my rig in but it depends if you have the resources to figure out the problem.

MindDrive Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 sounds like you have a compatability problem - try moving the ram to a different slot on the motherboard  make sure your harddrives and cdroms are plugged in right  if you have a floppy, make sure the floppy cable is plugged in right on the floppy's side - some floppy's you can flip the plug and hook it up wrong  what vid card do you have?? is it 2x 4x 8x ???  make sure that the pins on your monitors plug arent bent!! lots of people overlook this when they cannot get the computer to startup after building a new system  also if your graphix card supports 2 monitors, try switching which monitor port you are using Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marine Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 check and make sure that all your pins in the 12 volt etc. lines are not bent and that they are touching correctly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
