Hi all, I'm doing a new build and having trouble getting it to POST. Before I go too deep, should this combo be supported with BIOS v1.3? Thanks! |

According to the CPU Support list for your board, the i5-6400T should be supported by all UEFI/BIOS versions: http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H170M-ITXac/?cat=CPU" rel="nofollow - http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H170M-ITXac/?cat=CPU So it seems you have another problem. Do you have a POST beep speaker connected to the board? What memory are you using? Full model name please. ------------- http://valid.x86.fr/48rujh" rel="nofollow">

I don't have a speaker available but I should probably buy one. (Any recommendations?) The RAM is Crucial CT2K4G4DFS8213 (as recommended by the Crucial website for this motherboard). Thanks for the help.

| So I ordered and received a speaker and connected it and booted the system. Unfortunately, still no POST and worse, no sounds at all from the speaker. Next steps anyone? :( |

Do you have a power cable from the PSU connected to the four pin +12V ATX CPU power connector on the board? It's to the left of the CPU socket, and to the right of the DVI connector. The CPU won't start without a cable connected to this connector, it is required. Sorry to waste your time with that speaker, since I recall that the default setting in the UEFI/BIOS for the POST beep speaker is Disabled, at least it is for all my ASRock boards. WHY that is still that way, I cannot understand...  ------------- http://valid.x86.fr/48rujh" rel="nofollow">

Yes, I do have the 4 pin power connector connected. I'll post a full build inventory a little later. You're right, that's a bit ridiculous for the speaker to be disabled by default.
