Problem persists with infinite restarting on the latest motherboard.
Problem persists with infinite restarting on the latest motherboard.
I own an older PC I built a few years back (i3-7100 GTX 750 Ti, 8GB RAM, 500W PSU, MSI H110 M. Pro M2 board). It functioned well until recently when it began restarting unexpectedly during high-graphics Warframe gameplay. At that point, I upgraded to a new motherboard, as the previous one was delivering less voltage. After installing everything on the new board, when I powered it on, it turned on for just two seconds before shutting down. I attempted various fixes—swapping RAM, using a battery-powered reboot, disconnecting components, even removing the PSU—but nothing resolved the issue. The problem seems to lie with the motherboard itself, since it worked fine when I booted from the old one. The new board looks perfectly intact from the outside. Please advise.
The board you bought isn't compatible with the 7th generation CPU you have. As a result, it won't start.
The updated board isn't compatible with your CPU, causing the boot loop.
