I found how to make a new topic. It is called "AsRock Rack EP2C602 no post".

Hello. I'm posting here my problem because I was not able to find a solution for starting a new topic.
So here is my problem!
I bought a new motherboard from a friend of mine. It is a AsRock Rack ep2c602. He bought it a few years ago but never used it. I tried to test it with a cpu e5-4620 v1 and a 8gb dimm of ram on it. The mobo start for a few seconds than stops and after that it start again for a few seconds and so on. I talked with AsRock support service and they were very nice people. They send me a Rom chip and a bios chip. I changed both chips and there is no change. Hope I'll find a solution here. I also have a little video with the mobo behaviour. I could't find a solution to upload it here. So i used wetransfer. This is the video link:https://we.tl/t-JkCxnubpdi
Thanks in advance.
Augustin

When I powered the system up, I got nothing at all except a green LED on the MB just below the power connector, and another flashing by the PCI slots -- no fans, nothing on either video out.

Removing the GPU made the MB power up normally, and I was able to run it via the VGA output.  I tried this several times while messing with the PCI settings in BIOS (e.g. changing the PCI version to 3, and back to 2), and it was totally consistent -- GPU in, dead as a doornail; GPU out, worked fine.

I rushed out to PC World and got an Asus GT710 GPU, and it works fine.  So I guess this MB isn't compatible with some GPUs.  Ouch.

My next problem was random crash / reboots, which was apparently due to Windows 10 -- it seems it's not compatible.  I'm now running Linux which is fine.  I've heard Windows 7 works fine too.

All the best!
I just want to say thank you for this post. I have been struggling to try and figure out why my computer wouldn't boot. I could get it to boot with one CPU but not two. And when it did boot on one CPU it took a long time. After reading this post I took out my Gigabyte GT740 card and it booted up perfectly and very quickly. Looks like I'll be swapping the Gigabyte card out for the Asus GT710 too.

I've tried with two types of memory and monitor is plugged to the VGA output of Mobo... 

Here's a link to Dr. Debug https://youtu.be/onykSkCwdPg

I've got nothing connected besides 2 x CPU (Xeon-e5 2670 v1).

Could it be the Mobo or the PSU or have I just forgotten something important?! CryTongue


Thanks in advance!


EP2C602-4L/D16

2 x XEON e5 2670v1
Corsair RM1000x (PSU)
 



NM the two SLI'd GTX 980ti's LOLWink

Us Mods must get better at asking for system specs at time of troubleshooting/diagnosing.

So one of the GPUs is dead?

So the system works with the other GPU installed?

Hi!
This sounds pretty weird but here's what happened.
I took my PC to service, the guy tried to get it work (no video thru onboard VGA)... When he was about give up he installed a graphics card (not mine) to a PCI-E slot he got POST.

I got home and installed my graphics cards (2xgtx980ti). The machine started to cry again.
Seems like the other GPU is broken. I don't know if it can affect the Mobo but when I only install that GPU and boot I hear bunch of beeps from the motherboard.

Booting after that using only onboard VGA nothing happens just error codes.

With the other GPU everything worked fine.

I hope you understood something that I wrote :D This case ws so weird. And we did not even touch the Memory (Kingston).

Thanks again guys for your help!
