Need help

Built my new pc about a week ago, I went to restart it today and it will go no further than the gigabyte s-series mobo pic when it first boots up.

Any ideas about what’s wrong and what i can do to fix it?

Pull power, including all leads to the board and move CMOS header to clear position and also pull CMOS battery and leave over night.

Replace battery, move CMOS jumper back and re-attach PSU cables to the board and then boot.

Thank You that worked

So you guys would suggest that i get a better psu then ?
