Does the board get to post.
What are the full specs of your system, have you tried a CMOS reset?

Yeah. I tried a CMOS reset but it doesn't post. The motherboard is a GIGABYTE Z77-D3H.

All the other parts are fully working and shouldn't have any compatibility issues.

It seems it's a problem with these boards.

Have you checked to make sure it is not the ram?
Try with just 1 stick at a time.

Yeah. I did that. The ram is fine. Every stick works. It's just a gigabyte issue with their boards. I know there's some sort of fix for it.

Is it new? RMA it.

It's new. I will try and get it to post and try the power switch trick and see if it will suddenly come on.

If not, try removing the reset power leads from the mobo. One guy reckoned that worked for him.
Been reading up on this, seems everyone has a remedy of sorts, but nothing long term.

Yeah. I think it's dead. I tried the power trick but it still loops. I tried removing the reset power leads but to no avail. Which is a shame. I saw it was a cheap motherboard and it it was meant to be really good but i guess this was DOA.
