siberian Posted August 10, 2005 Posted August 10, 2005 Hey there, I just recieved my new LanParty UT Nf4 Ultra-D Motherboard and my new AMD Athelon 64-Bit 3000+ Processor. So I put them all together... Install the CPU, Install my RAM, my Video Card, my Sound Card bla bla bla... So I go to boot the system and all 4 Red LED lights go on suggesting that the motherboard does not recognize my CPU, RAM or anything... Any suggestions on how I would remedy this problem??? Thanks for the help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

siberian Posted August 10, 2005 Posted August 10, 2005 OK... sheesh. I updated my signature. Anyways, now am I eligable to recieve any help for my predicament? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted August 10, 2005 Posted August 10, 2005 What type of power supply are you using? Please add that to your sig. Have you checked to make sure that you connected all 4 power connectors to the motherboard? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
siberian Posted August 10, 2005 Posted August 10, 2005 Ok I have pluged in all the power cables and everything seems to light up. The DRAM Power LED is on The Standby LED is on All 4 Diagnostic LED's are on All 3 fans start up and run when i plug in the unit without pressing the powerbutton on my case. When I press the power button on my case nothing happens. (yes i have checked all the connections there) EDIT: I have a 20 Pin Powercord and a 24 Pin Reciever on my Board. Would this be the problem? It fits in the 20 to the right hand side leaving 4 pins exposed. (starting to feel stupid) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skip04 Posted August 10, 2005 Posted August 10, 2005 SH-ATX 365 W That power supply is not up to spec. See This http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showthread...er+supply+guide Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rldolph79 Posted August 11, 2005 Posted August 11, 2005 Think you've got it figured out...time to hit newegg or ebay for a new PSU (newegg is much quicker, ebay's a little cheaper). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoppyMcShotgun Posted August 11, 2005 Posted August 11, 2005 Yeah, this board is extremely power-hungry, as well as picky. Get at least a 480W PSU with a native 24-pin connector and you'll be good to go! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
siberian Posted August 11, 2005 Posted August 11, 2005 Ok so I take it that there is no way this will work if i use a 24pin adapter? even for like a week so I can work up to afford the 480??? Ive had this board and chip for 2 weeks now and I just want it up and running Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rldolph79 Posted August 11, 2005 Posted August 11, 2005 If you want to risk everything you'll be plugging into it...then yes, go for it. Newegg can have it here in a day or two, your choice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrp65 Posted August 11, 2005 Posted August 11, 2005 Not saying this the problem but you don't have the minimum power supply required for this board and without stable power well ... Maybe you can borrow a PSU before buying one or do a search for recommended ones here Do a search on Diagnostic LED to confirm the meaning of 4 lights on You also don't mention if you can get into the bios Also keep in mind when people ask you to update your sig or provide information it is so that we can help you or at least try and help you. Imagine reading a post that says "I put my system together and I can't boot to the BIOS. " Could you actually help them? Good Luck and let us know how things go.
