Mobo boot drive led stays lit and won't boot to bios at all. (system in sig) Daughter tried to turn it on and just told me it never came on - she said it had some loading screen and then went off. Not much detail I could get from her - only 9. No other warning signs. System power comes on with fans and such, but no bios and boot drive led stays lit.
I've pulled everything off the system down to 1 stick of ram, mobo and CPU - still get the boot drive led and won't boot to bios. I've actually tried a few drives to see if it would get to bios and it won't - so not sure it's a hard drive issue? I still need to take the boot SSD and get it tested to make sure it's not bad.
Tried to clear CMOS with jumper and then finally battery pull. Maybe I'm dumb and didn't get actually get it. Kid mentioned she typed on some keys as it was loading but I can't imagine she could have really messed up much.
Any ideas here - my thought is either CPU/Mobo is bad?
