Solve : Build GPU problem? |
|
Answer» Hi everyone! I would look up the beep codes....more than 1 at POST means something.... Yes same happens with the breadboard test. Looked for the beep codes, it should be RAM issue. Tested with ram from my other pc, Samsung 8gb 2rx8 Pc3-12800u. There was no MHz info in that. No luck with that. If it is a RAM issue why in the bios I can see my RAM and there is no any sign about failure. How RAM issue would explain why my GPU is not working properly? I'm starting to FEEL that the brand new MB has issues.If the BIOS doesn't even see the RAM then wrong RAM...not seated properly...or as you said bad MBoard...

I got rid of the second beep, just booted up and only heard one beep. With the original 2 x4Gb memory (what is going on) Video card problem still exists. MB starts beeping like maniac if the video card is not there so it "recognises" it when its there. But fans won't spin. Have you tried a different Vid card slot ? ? Are you positive the vid card is fully seated with the hold down screw fastened ? ? Quote from: patio on September 20, 2015, 10:09:47 AM Have you tried a different Vid card slot ? ? Tried with the black x8 PCIe slot, card snaps in place, the plastic holder lever goes in to the gap in the card, screws are tightened, 6 pin power cord in the videocard. aaand the fans are not spinning. Tried the Gt640 also and no progress.It's either the PSU...or the MBoard then... Quote from: patio on September 20, 2015, 10:32:21 AM It's either the PSU...or the MBoard then... I'm going to take the computer TOMORROW to my local shop where I bought the parts and show to them this masterpiece. Trying to get replace for the motherboard and/or the PSU Thanks for your help patio! Anytime...Best of Luck... If they are worth their salt they'll fixya right up...PS...there should be no additional charge...unless 1 or more components are upgraded... Quote from: patio on September 20, 2015, 10:56:46 AM Anytime...Best of Luck... Got the computer working, it was the HDD... Apparently R7 370 has quiet mode and then the fans won't spin in low temperatures, also the GT640 was a brick... (perfect combo to confuse my mind) Tested R9 270 video card on the new computers Motherboard --> fans spin But with R9 also got black screen when tried to install new OS. Tested new computers HDD on my other computer, won't boot to the other computers own OS from the SSD. (what) Started to get suspicious Because the HDD was only component in the play when the problems occurred. Swapped the HDD to new one, and computer boots finally and everything works! This was a very confusing 5 days. -WhiskersGlad to hear you are fixed up.....not sure why a HDD would cause additional Post beeps though. Quote from: patio on September 21, 2015, 09:14:07 AM Glad to hear you are fixed up.....not sure why a HDD would cause additional Post beeps though. Yep that is still a question mark. But the second beep stopped occurring, maybe something was loose.. |
