New DFI board won't run

[TWFox]

Hi all,

 

Just finished putting together my new system, but when I turn it on, I just get a big DFI Lanparty Logo on the screen. Nothing else happens. I've tried resetting the CMOS to no avail.

 

I'm using a 580W Hiper PSU, I've connected all the connectors, and I've got an X850 XT and just a single stick of Corsair at the moment.

 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers.

Oh, I've got a red and a yellow light on as well.

Ok first idea is to create a sig :dog:

 

Then its good that Uve done some reseach so ure not under powered. Have u connected all 4 cables?

 

Then try w just one stick of Ram and then the first thing U do in BIOS is to Load optimized defaults and disable LanParty Logo.

 

Report back.

I've only got one stick of ram in at the moment. I don't even get an opportunity to get as far as the BIOS, it just hangs on the LANparty logo.

 

Everything is connected up.

Just one red???

 

That is good try to get into BIOS by pressing DEL all the time :dog: during the LanParty screen.

 

1 red is everything detected but no boot.

Hey man

 

So u can't get into bios when hitting [delete] button ?

 

Have u tried unplugging your Ide/sata cables ?

 

Moving the memory to another slot ?

 

Try resetting the bios with the jumper off for 10 min.

 

Gl man, let us know how it goes

[TWFox]

Nope delete doesn't do anything. Oddly, my keyboard LED's dont light up either. Tried a USB and a PS2 keyboard.

 

I'll go move the ram and unplug the drives now.

 

Any ideas about the red and yellow lights?

You need to make a sig bro, we don't know what you have!!

Ok, sig made

 

I've moved the ram and unplugged my hard drives, no difference. Double checked power connectors - all in. Reset CMOS, no joy. Taken the battery out for a bit now.

 

I've only got the one stick of ram in at the moment, I only ever fill my machine with everything I have once it's all up and running.

I've saved a sig, no idea why it isnt coming up.

 

I'm running a Lanparty NF4 Ultra-D, 3200+ Venice, 2 Maxtor HDD's, an X850 XT, and a Hiper 580W PSU.

 

Everything else I've not even put in yet. Just a single stick of known good XMS3200LL as well.

Have you tried all your sticks, one by one of course? Was thinking you might have a weak one. Have you tried a long CMOS clear? Just a couple things right off the top of my head. You say you have 4 sticks there, maybe try each one. Think those might like voltage and if your stuck @ 2.6v it might not be enough is all, but maybe one will require juss a little less to get you goin'..who knows.

 

Good Luck

Ok Drop the PATA and run the SATA on SATA port 3 or 4.

 

Then the Red light:

 

When U sart the computer there should be 4 red light coming on tthen the first will go off as U detect CPU. The second for graphics and the third for RAM (or in another order) the forth is turned off upon succesful boot.

 

Did U try hittin del once ever 1.5 secons during the enitire LanParty screen?
