What is occurring with this system
I recently got my mobo and cpu upgraded from athlon ii x4 641, ga-a55m-ds2 to core i5 4690, ga-b85m-d2v.
I really hope I'm doing something user error instead of hardware failure because this is one of the upgrades I've been waiting for.
Whenever I save a setting in the bios I get
this on and off behavior
. And whenever I try to do some gaming(Valorant and Osu!) And doing OCCT's Power stability tests,
I get frozen screens, Kernel Data Inpage Errors, Drives getting disconnected.
And I don't know what else to do, even without a graphics card and using the igpu, using different ram sticks and even a 875w power supply(I was using 300w before the upgrade), as well as taking the whole system out, keeping the essential parts to boot into windows and straight up blasting air directly with a standing fan.
I'm tired at the countless diagnosing headaches, I'm considering going back to my previous system, I'm sad that the thing I got for my birthday is a paper weight, I have to wait for major holidays or my birthdayy next year to do massive changes to my system.
Full System Specs:
Intel Core I5 4690 (previously Athlon ii x4 641
XFX RX 580 2048sp 4GB variant
Gigabyte ga-b85m-d2v rev 3.0 (previously ga-a55m-d2v)
4GB DDR3 1600 (was with a 8GB Roboto stick, new mobo didn't accept it)
120GB SSD Walram
500GB HDD Seagate
320GB HDD Western Digital
300w and an 875w PSUs
In the first video - are you constantly pressing the power button?
It seems like the PSU has a problem - its protections are getting tripped.
In the second video - I think it's a video cable or monitor issue.
Try using a different video cable and monitor.
It could also be due to GPU overheating.
What is your PSU model? Please upload a photo of the PSU information label. (upload to imgur.com and post the link)
1. They work automatically, I'm not sure, both PSUs display the same results
2. I'll test it with the iGpu if it still shows the same effect; I don't have a DP to HDMI adapter and also lack a compatible DVI-D cable, only a DVI-I to VGA cable
3. Uncertified Inplay 300w and Dell 875w
So uhhh,
I woke up this morning and attempted to do something for the moment. The seller I bought from had conducted extensive tests to confirm there were no defects. While I was adjusting settings randomly to accept reality, I tried removing the CMOS battery and the system didn’t shut down abruptly—it stayed in BIOS, saved settings, and even booted into Windows. Right now, I’m running Windows updates, installing graphics drivers, and performing a stability test in Power. Still hoping it was the CMOS Battery that caused this, I’ll update once I get results.
