New build wont post.

[That guy]

I posted a thread on this at another forum and they said to come over here. my problem is that it will not post, even without gpu/hdd plugged in. the psu is working fine. the mobo is a p7p55d evo.

Do you have ram inserted? If so, try switching sockets. I bought a motherboard once that wouldn't boot because one of the sockets I tried was defective.

 

[That guy]

yes. i have tried all slots with each stick.

 

[fss69]

Sounds silly, but is the 12V Cable plugged in?

 

[That guy]

yes.

WOW.

I was coming here just to post something and I'm running into a similar issue.

I have the ASUS P7P55D as well.

I'm getting a red CPU_LED light on. I verified i've seated the CPU correctly THREE TIMES. It won't boot. The POST LED is green though...

 

[altmann]

OK, well now the CPU and RAM LED is lit up, and hte RAM LED is blinking which, according to the manual means it's "tuning the RAM..." but it's been doing that for 5 min straight w/no boot screen.

 

[That guy]

Yeah make sure your 12v connector is in and try removing the cmos battery.

Might need a little more voltage on the RAM to boot properly. Can you try with different sticks?

 

[That guy]

1.5v sticks, dont have any spare ddr3 laying arond.
so i got my parts back from rma. still wont boot. was getting a warning beep from my 5850 so i swapped it with my 4650. still no video, no warning beeps. what the hell?
