Hello everyone, perhaps someone has a solution to this issue. I'm setting up two PCs for a client and neither is posting properly. The CPU fans are spinning while the case fans and PSU do not. The board lacks diagnostic LEDs. The Asus site mentions a Q Core feature that shows diagnostics via the power button flashing, but it doesn't illuminate. I've verified everything is installed correctly, no loose RAM or cables, and tested both 24-pin and 8-pin power cables from another PSU, yet nothing works. I tried using a different motherboard and CPU+RAM combo, but still no results. I looked into a BIOS update and since the board doesn't support flashback, I checked a 12th-gen Intel CPU on it, but it didn't help. I found a helpful post and attempted to remove the CMOS battery, though the case fans and optical drive still functioned. Any suggestions or obvious fixes would be appreciated. Thanks!

Move the RAM stick into each slot one by one, starting with slot 1 and continuing up to slot 4.

The ram stick might be experiencing a problem. Consider trying an alternative.

It's amusing, but worth testing—turn off all SSDs, DVD drives, and M.2 devices and observe the outcome.

I forgot to note that I removed it from the case and simply connected it on top of the board box without all the other components. Just a power switch cable from the case, no changes made before testing it without the M.2 slot again, but it didn’t work.

Do you possess a mini bio speaker? (Includes case screws) Plug into the motherboard and check for any indication
