Hi
just built this today and when i try and boot the mobo lights up and gives a post code 01 (expand the xgroup codes locating in physical address 1000:0)
I just dont get what this means and the mobo manual is of little help.

No fans comes on and the psu justs makes a clicking sound.Hyper type r 580 working fine yesterday.
Have tried memery in diff slots tried 1 stick at a time,the cmos just is in right place and the cmos switch on the back is in correct position.
Any ideals anyone please.

everthing seated ok tried with a new psu now 750 tough power mobo lights up post code 01.no sign of life from the new psu no fans coming either..Tried the memory 1 stick at a time in diff slots.:mad:
 
pressing the powerswitch on the mobo and the machine now boots yippee.The bad news is the power button on the antec1200 is not working worse still the top of the case has rivets on and is impossile to get off.
So now i have 2 choices every time i put the pc on i have to remove side case and press the onboard power switch,or send the case back,yipes that will not be cheap,dont suppose overclockers will send me a new one and pick up the faulty one...:mad:
 
Yes the power header has been tried both ways and finally i got a m8 round with a multitester and the powerswitch is dead.The top of the case is riverted on and impossible to get to the powerswitch..
