Issues with CPU and case fans failing to operate after installing the new AMD build.
Issues with CPU and case fans failing to operate after installing the new AMD build.
Hello everyone, I just finished assembling my new build last night. Everything seems connected and powered on, but I’m facing a problem. When I power it up, the CPU fan and chassis fans spin once then stop. The lights come on but no fans are running. I haven’t even connected the GPU yet because of this. During assembly, I had trouble getting the top left screw of the motherboard into its bracket—it didn’t fit properly. The rest of the screws worked, but the board wobbles when I press on it. I’m not sure what to do next. I read somewhere a BIOS update might help, but it’s unclear if that would affect the fans. I tried unplugging and plugging everything back in several times, but it still doesn’t work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Missed the 4+4 pin CPU power connector in the top left, so the CPU isn't receiving power. Also, most boards won't boot without a GPU if the CPU lacks an IGPU.
Apologies for the delayed reply. That was the problem. Appreciate the assistance!
