Hey everyone, here’s the build I’m working with: a PCPartPicker Part List with all items listed at $0.00. The components include a Core i5-4430 CPU, MSI Z87-G41 motherboard, Corsair Vengeance RAM, an Asus Radeon R9 270X graphics card, a NZXT H2 case, and a Corsair CX 600W power supply. I’ve also added a DVD/CD writer from LG. Prices cover shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts. Total comes to $0.00.
I tried connecting everything to a separate PSU that’s confirmed working, which means the APU should be getting power properly. I disassembled and reconnected all parts, removed the GPU, RAM, CPU, and cooler, then reassembled to confirm everything fits correctly. I tested the GPU with a monitor connected to both the GPU and the APU, and it worked outside the build.
I ran through several RAM setups, though I haven’t tried other models yet—I’ll test them tonight. The CPU also didn’t work, so I’m focusing on the motherboard or CPU itself. I double-checked the CPU pins and sockets, but none looked bent or misaligned. I even tried installing a working HDD to rule out that as a problem.
I can’t locate the CMOS switch either, which might be another factor. Any tips or overlooked steps would be super helpful—I’d prefer to fix it without buying a new motherboard. Thanks!
Based on your troubleshooting, I believe the motherboard might be the issue. You may want to try one more step: turn off the power and remove the CMOS battery, then press the power button for about 30 seconds before reconnecting everything. If the system still doesn’t work, it could mean the chipset or motherboard controller is damaged, or the BIOS EEPROM is faulty. I assumed an LGA1150 socket is meant for Intel 4th generation CPUs, even though a 3rd generation processor wouldn’t fit.
It might not be CMOS the problem, but the system should still show error codes during startup. If you're not seeing any beep codes, the issue could be elsewhere in the setup or hardware.
It depends on the setup—issues with the bios can sometimes prevent posting entirely or cause errors. The board might be damaged, but trying could still work and has helped many cases.
This action will revert all bios configurations to their standard settings.
