" rel="nofollow - My build is:
ASRock AB350 Pro4
AMD A8-9600
Samsung DDR4 8GB 2133 M378A1K43BB1-CPB
ThermalTake 500w PSU
Connected through HDMI.

The system turns on and all the fans spin up but I never get any beeps or video.  I have tried the RAM in all the slots.  I started with slot A2.  I have removed and reseeded everything.  I have checked the video cable with another computer.  It has been a while since I have built a system.  Is there anything else I can check before I start returning parts to see what might be bad?

Thanks for all your help!!!!!

" rel="nofollow - andy75, I don't think that board has a speaker.  Have you added a speaker?  If not, please do.  Have you performed a Clear CMOS?  Enjoy, John.

" rel="nofollow - I did not think of the board not having a speaker.  I can try to plug one into the back port when I get home.  Does the board support sounds over HDMI?  If so the HDMI monitor I have has sound built in.

Yes I did a CMOS clear.  I power down then set the jumper then powered back up for about 30 seconds.  Powered down, cleared the jumper, powered up with no change.

" rel="nofollow - andy75, sounds like you did the Clear CMOS fine.  Please check your manual for the header that supports a small speaker.  This is the speaker I am talking about - just a beeper, really.  You will need to purchase one at your local computer store - like this https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA6RP3755293&cm_re=mb_speaker-_-9SIA6RP3755293-_-Product
dirt cheap.  Enjoy, John.

" rel="nofollow - I just noticed the Samsung RAM I have is not in the supported list on the motherboard page.  4gb package is but not the 8gb package.  I would not think that would be a big deal but maybe.  Your thoughts?

andy75, if you are saying that your memory is two sticks of a qualified single stick, I would agree with you.  When we hear what the beep code says, hopefully we can develop a plan.  It could still be a memory problem.  Enjoy, John.

Got a speaker plugged it up to the board and I get no sounds at all.  The only thing that I hear is the fans getting a little faster then a little slower.

One check worth doing.........and from the sound of the fan behaviour, definitely worth doing, the CPU power connector, probably an 8 pin.....These are often quite tight fitting, and it may seem pressed all the way in when there is still 1mm or so to go. This is really worth a try, prss hard try to see if the latch has "actioned"
I had same problem, and this was the issue.

Try removing the power plug, holding down the power button for 30s and then plugging back in and powering it on.

Works for me (sometimes)

Here is an "Insiders' hint

Power down, disconnect power, bleed of the residual by holding the cases power button in for 3-5secs, install ONLY one stick in A2, reconnect power and attempt booting

" rel="nofollow - Just so I make sure I am doing things correctly.  You want me to remove the 8 pin CPU power from the board.  Then hold down the power button for 30 seconds ( no single press turn on first ).  Then turn off add the 8 pin power back then see if it starts?

I interpret it as "unplug the power supply from the wall socket".

Yeap remove either the kettle lead from the back of the psu or the plug from the wall.

No beeps is weird, andy75.  Please try one stick of memory in each slot then the other.  Enjoy, John.

" rel="nofollow - Update:  I broke down and got a different set of ddr4 and everything works great.  I would like to get my Samsung DDR4 working if possible.  I would like to use the M378A1K43BB1-CPB NON-ECC stick.  I just noticed that this exact model number is not on the list.


DDR4Samsung213321338GBM378A5143DB0-CPB
SS2/4
DDR4Samsung213321338GBM391A1G43EB1-CPBQ (ECC)

SS2/4

Is there any hope for getting this working on my system?
