Looks pretty straight to me. If you clean up that thermal paste all over the edges and reinsert it, it might work. I've brought a couple of Socket 939 CPUs back from the brink of a pin-bent death with a credit card, a chopstick and a lot of patience, so you might have fixed it.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

Post your specs

Define "not posting", are you not getting video signal? Where is your monitor plugged into? The board or GPU?

You have a dedicated RX 570, A520 motherboard, and Ryzen 3100 CPU and some 2400MHz RAM. (I searched through your posts)

 

You need to plug your monitor into the RX570 and realize there is no speaker on the Asus board so unless you attach a speaker dongle you won't hear post codes.

Nah, happens to everyone, just make sure you post your specs next time, the more info the better :)

If you had a 3200G or 3400G then plugging into the motherboard would work but any AMD CPU without a "G" at the end doesn't have onboard graphics so it won't work if you plug into the motherboard (usually).

If it's Windows 10 you might need to check in BIOS and see if it's set to boot into Legacy or UEFI mode. If it's set to boot into UEFI mode try to change the boot order so your SSD or whatever comes first.

Also, make sure your drive is plugged in properly, if it's a 2.5" or 3.5" drive make sure sata power and data are properly plugged in and didn't get pulled during troubleshooting or something.

Once you're in BIOS there should be an option to select a boot drive to boot one time. Select your HDD with the OS on it and hit enter and see if Windows boots at least that way.

I tried using a brand new sata port and it still didn't detect it.

At this point it's going to be hard to guess at what might be the problem so let's get a few questions out of the way:

1) did the drive work before?

2) did you install an OS on the drive?

3) does the drive show up in another PC

4) can you post pictures of the drives and whatnot?

The drive worked, it had windows 10, it worked with my vostro 260 that used 4 gb of 1333 ram before I upgraded to 8gb of 1666, and a i3-2120 before I upgraded it to a i5-2400, and yes my had has only one rail

Does it show up in the BIOS at all? I want to make sure you're not just trying to boot to it and getting a "No Operating System" screen.

 

Unplug your other 2 drives for now, leave just that one plugged in.

Okay this is big. It does detect it. But when I try and leave bios it doesn't do anything it just goes back to it.
