Look at the sticker on your BIOS chip, if it is not 1.8 or higher then that is most likely the problem. Sorry, I missed your comment in the other thread.

Check the white sticker on the BIOS chip (highlighted in red on the pic I posted).
If the BIOS version is earlier than p1.8 then that is why you can't post. If this is the case then you can either order a new BIOS chip or take the board to a store and get them to flash it for you.

I second this! When I build my own first pc I had everything installed and I thought everything was plugged in. When I checked the cables to my gfx card and came to the conclusion that my MSI Radeon R390 didn't have all the slots (or squares) filled. I had to grab one of my cables that I got with my AMD motherboard and use that instead of the cables provided with my new installed GFX card. This might be a overlooked mistake and one a newbie like me could make by not knowing this stuff, haha. Also check if your power supply has the required Watts to run everything through! Good luck! :) |
