LED on the motherboard and monitor isn't lighting up.
Hello everyone! I'm having this issue for the past two days and I just can't figure it out. When I turn the PSU off and then on the green LED is on and it directs me to the boot menu. From the BIOS when I press the Windows Boot Manager it boots normally. So here's where the problem starts. When I restart the PC the white LED starts to glow (after DRAM and CPU) permanently: and there isn't anything on the monitor as well and the Display Port is greyed out as if it isn't connected at all. Recently I've done two things in the past month: 1. Eleven days ago I updated the BIOS because I wanted to add two more sticks of RAM(2x8GB) and hoped the update would make it stable on 3200 MHZ(D.O.C.P ) . 2. Added the two sticks of RAM into the system. I tired pretty much everything I could from README: How to respond to a no POST or no power up situation and it still doesn't boot when I restart my PC. I have no idea why the monitor doesn't turn on and why the DisplayPort is greyed out when the white LED is on, as if the monitor is not feeling it these past few days.. Here's the system as well: Every answer will be much appreciated!!!
Begin by examining the initial symptoms. When it starts normally but encounters errors during boot, it suggests the system can't locate a boot device or the device itself is faulty. On your first screenshot, only the Seagate hard drive was detected. Your WD BLACK sn850 isn't showing up, and you're receiving an RAID-related error. Start investigating from there. You also noted you've updated the BIOS. If that's the case, verify the following settings in the BIOS—RAID configuration, first boot options, and fast boot settings (perhaps you forgot the exact term). Ensure they are disabled. If nothing appears unusual, reset the BIOS settings back to defaults or clear the CMOS. It's highly likely, but also consider checking the SSD's health.
1800X is likely to struggle with DDR4-3200, especially when using four sticks instead of two. Zen and Zen+ models (like Ryzen 1000 and 2000 series) had a limited Integrated Memory Controller, so you might need to lower the speed to DDR4-2933 or even DDR4-2666. The white "Boot" LED seems to indicate a possible issue with detecting the boot drive.
It operated smoothly at 3200 RPM with just 16GB of storage, and after adding two more drives it performed perfectly, though the boot failure remains extremely puzzling
I’d attempt to start without any disks attached. Once you’re in BIOS, disable RAID if you don’t plan to use it. Remove the two sticks you installed.
