Hi,

I just finished putting my DFI EXPERT together. Is this the first time you used the board?

I had problems using DIMM 1 OR 3. DIMM 2 was fine and allowed me to install windows. Im sorting out the mem problem now and hope to hae it fixed in a minute :)

no i just swiched the board to a new case after upgrading some watercooling gear and the motherbaord cooling i would have though if was dead i would have got no LEDs whats so ever as the standby LED are showing eveything is A ok , and yes the ram is in slot 2 , but even with nothing on the board it should still swich on

edit just tryed to remove the motherboad and tryed to power up again
