New build

Well yeah, that way it will hopefully start up, all pressing the power button does is short those two pins momentarily.

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 01:43

I just shorted it and the fans started running and some lights came on , but it kept turn off and on repeatedly

Always confused with the f panel set up can you tell me where they go correctly I have powersw ( two pin ) power led + ( one pin) power led - (one pin) reset (two pin) and hdd led ( two pin )

Did you briefly short it? and not continuously?

Have you cleared the CMOS?

Use the absolute basics to power up (one stick of RAM, no drives attached, one GFX card attached)

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 01:49

Yeah just the once, still looking for CMOS ,I've only got one card in right now , will disconnect all my hard drives now

It actually doesnt matter which way the pins are around on the reset+ power switch buttons pins.

If theres no power or HDD flashing light then you have ± the wrong way around.

Power OFF at the wall, pop out the battery for a few minutes, pop it back in and power ON.

Battery???? Where's that

On the motherboard.

All this info is in the manual.

stulid · 21 Mar 2012 at 01:57

Its between the slots.

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 01:58

Found the battery , under my card

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 02:07

Ive done everything above got the switches in the right place, turned it on , the fans start , and the led on the motherboard comes on then it clicks and goes off , and then repeats itself , cannot hear nothing from the gpu tho

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 02:08

Can't hear the hydro 100 either and the fans ontop of the case are not moving

OptimaLnrg · 21 Mar 2012 at 02:10

Have you connected the h100 molex to molex power and 3 pin header to the cpu_fan connector on the motherboard?

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 02:12

Ahhh , the is a connection I have not made to the cooler , it's a moles but only has two pins in it

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 02:22

Connected that, all fans running , still hear nothing from the gpu and it keep restarting after 3 seconds no bleeps or nothing.

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 02:36

Fans are going on the gpu just stops after 3 secs...

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 02:57

Off to bed , I will strip it tomorrow and start again..

Dogfood09 · 21 Mar 2012 at 11:31

Ok , striped the pc all I've have connected is CPU , hydro h100 cooler, 1 gpu , as I turn it on the fans start three light on the motherboard come on which are a red one next to dd4, and amber one on dd3 and green on dd2 and dd1 they flash on , then goes off and and the is stuck in a cycle till I power it off at the psu....any more ideas, I tried racking my brains , the only thing I am going to do now is change the cooler for the stock cooler that came with the CPU

stulid · 21 Mar 2012 at 11:46

You will need a stick of RAM also.

Remove the GFX card and connect the monitor to the motherboard directly.

When you fitted the board, you did only put stand-offs only where there is a hole on the board PCB?

You connected the H100 to the CPUFAN header?
