Just got an expensive UAD 2 PCI card so I'm a little nervous TBH.Ĥ mobo's in a row that can't run my 3930K will be a little too disappointing for me lol. I'm probably going to give up on the upgrade and settle with my RIVF and just hope my PSU doesn't blow and it doesn't kill any of my PCI cards. If they can't recommend a fix, going to return to Micro Center and get a replacement. Going to give ASUS a call and see what they have to say. If it does, I don't know how to fix it either. but in the slight chance it could help you, hopefully it works. No clue if this helps you, and I know it isn't logical. Or if I put the CMOS battery back, same problem. Whenever I unplug the cord and put it back to soon, code 00, CPU_LED on. And as long as I don't remove the powercord or disengage the PSU switch, it stays working, shutdowns, reboots, standby, overclocking, works like a charm. Plug in your powercord, flip the PSU switch andįor me, it will post every-time without fail. Wait at least 20 to 30 minutes, but preferably an hourĤ. Unplug the system from the wall and disable the power switch on the back of your PSUģ. The ONLY way I can get it to work is the following way:ġ. and this has worked consistently for 3 days now and lots of testing.Īs you, I was pulling my hear out why it wouldn't work, while I know my components where in working order since it did post before! I unmounted and remounted my motherboard, CPU and cooling numerous times, nothing worked. But when I unplug the power cord, BAM, code 00, however long I try, just Code 00 and the CPU_LED is on. I'll be making a dedicated post about my problem later on.īasically it will almost never post, but when it does, it's stable, overclockable and just ROCK solid whatever I do with it. And while this is a completely different platform, maybe I can help you out. I seem to be having a similar odd problem with my newly purchased Asus Maximus VI Gene and i7-4770k to go with it. No clue why they aren't working together. I also updated it to 2104 just to double check if maybe the new BIOS didn't work well.Īny help from anyone with this new breaking news would be ultra appreciated. I was able to update the BIOS on the P9X79 to the most current. could that be an issue to look for here? Again. but they don't work together? :-/Īny ideas how this is possible and how to fix without having to sell off this 3930K and buy a new one? I've read a little bit about C2 stepping. the 3930K works flawlessly on my RIVF mobo. The mobo is confirmed to be in working order now. Lastly, I tried a Geforce (i think the 670) video card. I also tried a stick of Corsair XMS ram, and a ballistix stick. My buddy had a spare 3820 chip to let me borrow to troubleshoot. I was confident the BIOS update would fix the issue. I could definitely use some help and/or suggestions.Īnybody have any ideas? Again. or i just don't know what the heck i'm doing. i'm convinced there's a chance the mobo isn't DOA, but there is just something i'm missing. I'm trying to upgrade to this new mobo so I can eventually increase my ram to 64GB, and b/c my RIVF has some PCI slots broken off by the previous user which makes me nervous.Īfter going thru 2 Gigabyte boards and now this ASUS mobo and none of them POSTing. I have a spare LGA 2011 mobo (Rampage IV Formula) fortunately. My components are confirmed to be in working order. so I can't remember what else i've tried. I've been troubleshooting for about 5-6 hours now. two sticks of ram in the D1 and the B1 dimm slots. one stick of RAM in the D1 dimm slot as recommended removing the battery for a minute and putting it back in After 2 hours I was able to get the BIOS updated to the latest version 4005 using the USB Flash BIOS feature (had to name is P9X79PRO.CAP, it didn't work with P9X79PRO.ROM like the manuals state) also plugged in to the chassis fan while having my stock case fan plugged to the CPU-fan Heatsink fan plugged into the CPU_fan outlet. I don't even think it's gotten so far as to test the RAM and GPU, it's stuck on the CPU. The CPU LED light is red and the mobo will not go past this point. I had similar problems with the Gigabyte GA-X79-UP4 mobo (two in a row didn't post), so I switched to this one hoping I could get some headway. I just purchased a new ASUS P9X79 Pro mobo. I'm not sure what else to do at this point. I have reached the limit of my troubleshooting abilities.
