  1. Didn't need fpanel as could just jump the power pins with a screwdriver butttt it didn't want to work at all stripped everything down and then put back together outside of case and still no go... 30,000 attempts later no clue what I did but it booted to the bios, I then reinstalled the drives and it all worked again.

     

    Very strange both had such similar issues today but also spent hours diagnosing and no clue what fixed it in the end.

  2. 2 minutes ago, Mojo-Jojo said:

    Clear CMOS usually just shorts the battery's 3V3 and GND. This may or may not work depending on the situation.

     

    Did you make sure to:

    • Unplug the PC from the wall socket?
    • Then press the on-button to drain the PSU's capacitors?
    • Then disconnect the CMOS battery?

    Make sure you do these, in that order, before shorting the clear CMOS pins. Short them for a good few seconds with a conductive material, or if your board has it, the button.

     

    Yes tried all of the above but I removed the battery and then held power button then left for 10min just to be safe, will try your way just to be sure.

  3. The machine does power up, but my screen remains black (no POST).

    1. Make sure your BIOS version is compatible with the CPU generation you're trying to run in your motherboard, you can consult the manual or the manufacturer's website about this. ✅ Was working previously and board is 3000 Ryzen compatible
    2. Check if EVERY power cable is connected. Auxiliary power connectors included. ✅ Disconnected and reconnected everything to check.
    3. Make sure the cable coming from your monitor is attached securely to the graphics card. Also make sure it is securely attached to the monitor itself. ✅
    4. Make sure your PSU is powerful enough to power your complete system. ✅ 600w is overkill for system and was working before hand.
    5. Make sure your monitor works by testing it on a different computer. ✅ HDMI input tested with Nintendo Switch
    6. If you have both a dedicated GPU and an iGPU, try your monitor on both the outputs on the graphics cards as well as on the motherboard. ❌ No iGPU
    7. Make sure all connectors and cables are plugged in securely, reseat if necessary. ✅ Unplugged and replugged everything
    8. Make sure your RAM, CPU and GPU are plugged in securely, reseat if necessary. ✅ Reseated everything
    9. If the motherboard you're using has debug LEDs, check the error code and consult the motherboard manual to see what it means. ❌ Wish it did.
    10. If you have a debug speaker connected to the motherboard, note the beep sequence and consult the motherboard manual or this thread to see what it means. ❌ No debug speaker tried attaching an old one but no go...
    11. Try clearing your CMOS. ✅ Tried battery and jumper methods neither works.
    12. Try booting your computer with only a motherboard, CPU and one stick of RAM attached (if you don't have an iGPU, plug in your GPU as well ;) ). ✅ Removed M.2, and 1 ram stick still no go...
    13. Make sure your GPU works (if you have a dedicated one), try it in another computer. ❌ No other tower..
    14. Make sure your RAM works, try it another computer. ❌ no other tower
    15. Make sure the RAM is compatible with your CPU and your motherboard. ✅ Worked before XMP profile change
  4. So found an old case speaker but not getting any sound so now don't know if the Mobo isn't beeping or the speaker is so old it doesn't work... **Facepalm**

     

    Tried resetting not only by using battery method but also bridging the CMOS reset pins still no luck... Read on another post it could be memory training but this would now be the 19th time I have tried to boot the system.Till CPU fan spins up for about 4-5 seconds GPU fans spins then all GPU stops CPU slows down and repeat.

     

    Really need help here..

     

     

  5. Help...

     

    Ram is 3000Mhz read it's actually a pretty good set to OC went into bios and changed the XMP profile, restarted the pc and now it won't post.

     

    Tried removing CMOS battery and still nothing. CPU fan spins up and down, GFX spins up then stops and that is it.

     

    Any suggestions please...

     

     

  6. There is an older thread but don't want to revive it so I will ask here for some more advice.

     

    Anyone got any photos of decent cable management in the V21, I have moved my clear side to the top of the case partially because its under the desk and prefer to look down on the RGB goodness but also so I don't have to see the rats nest under the Mobo Tray but I would love to see what you have all done to make this case look beautiful.

  7. So my card got sent back for a full refund they refused to replace it as they have increased the price of units now ended up getting a XFX GTS XXX rx580 instead but noticing much lower framerates about 40% drop from what I was getting with the Saphire unit previously, anyone else noticed this or can advise specific tuning I could do on this card?

  8. Sincerely would appreciate everyone's help done my first self build in a long time with wife and kids during lockdown.

     

    Went for a

    • Thermal Take V21 case
    • AMD Ryzen 5 3600
    • Asrock b450m HDB r4.0
    • Sapphire RX580
    • Colink enclave 600 fully modular

    Idea being it has lots of room for expansion but was still well within my £650 budget at the time.

     

    Anyway short version I'm having weird crashes all the time no under specific load not under specific heat and I want to diagnose but not sure how.

     

    See attached image of the artifacts seen when crash happens, like I said sometimes after this it will continue as if nothing happened other times it will have killed the game other times the whole PC with reboot.

     

    Sincerely hope you can help.
