Hi All, I just changed the power supply on this MicroITX PC. It went from an EVGA 750W to an EVGA 600W. PC Spec: i3 - 6100 w/ stock cooler H110i Pro AC - MOBO Manual here Corsair Vengeance RAM 2x8GB Everything has been re-connected properly and the computer powers on. Unfortunately, the computer will not seem to boot - I don't get to the BIOS screen. The DRAM LED light on the MOBO is solid when the computer turns on. I've tried removing the RAM and powering on with only one DIMM at a time - same problem. I also tried resetting the CMOS memory by shorting the appropriate jumper on the MOBO - same LED afterward. Is my MOBO fried? Is the RAM dead (I doubt it...)? It was working fine just yesterday prior to the PSU swap out. Any other reason the DRAM LED would be on? Thanks in advance!

Thing is, I tried the Intel SSD on a friends board in one of the m.2 slots and it had no problem recognizing. Unfortunately, my case is super small - not designed for any 2.5 drives. With the second m.2 slot, my intention was to never need a 2.5 incher. I might be able to rig something up for a 2.5, we'll see if I can figure the m.2. Pretty frustrating.

It may just be temporary - I JUST signed up for a forum account and confirmed by email etc. Tried to post a new topic, buuut i'm banned before i even get started...lol

Thanks for your comment. Not yet, this would require removal of gfx card and disassembly of a heat sink - might do this eventually but i figured I would post here first.

Nvm...thanks ASUS...

Hi Folks, My first post here - hopefully someone can help me out! Thanks in advance I have an ASUS ROG Z370-I (two m.2 ports) already perfectly running a Samsung 850 Evo m.2 drive in the primary slot, but purchased a second drive (Intel 600P Series 512gb) to expand storage. It seems no matter what I do my MOBO wont recognize the new Intel drive in the second m.2 port. No recognition in UEFI BIOS or in Windows - cant initialize the drive. There doesn't even appear to be a second m.2 slot showing as "empty" in the BIOS - PCH Storage Configuration What am I missing here? How do I get my board to recognize a second m.2 drive? Keep in mind the following: I HAVE tested the new Intel m.2 drive on another board and it works just fine. I am running the latest BIOS version (0615) I have not tested a different drive in the second slot (I would rather not swap my Samsung drive as this requires lots of disassembly) I'll probably post something similar on the ASUS forum Other thoughts: Is this Intel drive somehow not compatible with my board? Fairly certain it is compatible... Is there some kind of PCI-E setting I need to enable before a second m.2 drive will be recognized? Other BIOS settings I am missing? MOBO Manual here THANK YOU
