Hi guys, I just threw together a cheap low end build and I'm having problems from the get go.
After assembly the computer booted and I was greeted with the screen that asks you to press F1 to enter setup or press F2 to load defaults, so I pressed F2 and then it just shut down.
Tried to switch it back on and nothing, dead as a dodo.
Removed the power supply and stuck it in another machine, the little green light is on, on the motherboard, but it won't turn on either.
Connected the psu from the working machine up to the new motherboard and there is some life but it won't boot up.
When I press the power button the fan will spin then stop for a second then spin again and just gets stuck in a loop doing that.
Reset the cmos several times but can't even get it to show the setup screen now.
Any ideas?
Edit: Specs of the build:
MSI H81M-34
Pentium G3258
Kingston 60GB SSD
EVGA 430W PSU
1 x 4 gig stick Kingston HyperX Fury 1600mhz
