New Build - Not Posting

Hi I have just finished building my PC. The fans are spinning, the GPU fan is spinning, and the keyboard and mouse have light up. The PC won't post and the monitor doesn't show anything or get a signal and the motherboard says "BOOT". I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions with this. So far we have tried switching inputs for the monitor and moving around the sticks of RAM. I was wondering if I could get some help on this.

 

Thank you so much in advance!

We tried both, plugging the HDMI cable into the motherboard and GPU to a monitor that works.

well, it may be also that since you are using a b350 board, it does not have the right drives installed, unless you have already updated them some other way

The error code in the manual means: "BOOT - indicates the booting device is not detected or fail." It could be that and we are looking into getting an AMD Boot Kit but I'm not totally sure if that will fix the problem.

Boot LED means it isn't communicating with drives installed. Take all drives out (the SSD and HDD) and see if it will boot into BIOS. If not, take the GPU out and try it on integrated graphics (take the GPU out, don't just switch video outputs).

My Build, v2.1 --- CPU: i7-8700K @ 5.2GHz/1.288v || MoBo: Asus ROG STRIX Z390-E Gaming || RAM: 4x4GB G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 2666 14-14-14-33 || Cooler: Custom Loop || GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 Ti SC Black, on water || PSU: EVGA G2 850W || Case: Corsair 450D || SSD: 850 Evo 250GB, Intel 660p 2TB || Storage: WD Blue 2TB || G502 & Glorious PCGR Fully Custom 80% Keyboard || MX34VQ, PG278Q, PB278Q

Audio --- Headphones: Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6XX || Amp: Schiit Audio Magni 3 || DAC: Schiit Audio Modi 3 || Mic: Blue Yeti

 

[Under Construction]

 

My Truck --- 2002 F-350 7.3 Powerstroke || 6-speed

My Car --- 2006 Mustang GT || 5-speed || BBK LTs, O/R X, MBRP Cat-back || BBK Lowering Springs, LCAs || 2007 GT500 wheels w/ 245s/285s

 

The Experiment --- CPU: i5-3570K @ 4.0 GHz || MoBo: Asus P8Z77-V LK || RAM: 16GB Corsair 1600 4x4 || Cooler: CM Hyper 212 Evo || GPUs: Asus GTX 750 Ti, || PSU: Corsair TX750M Gold || Case: Thermaltake Core G21 TG || SSD: 840 Pro 128GB || HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB

 

R.I.P. Asus X99-A motherboard, April 2016 - October 2018, may you rest in peace. 5820K, if I ever buy you a new board, it'll be a good one.

Okay I am trying to take out the SSD and HDD and seeing if that fixes it. Ryzen 2600 doesn't have integrated graphics right?

Did you confirm that that b350 is actually 2nd gen ryzen ready? Cuz if it's not you're supposed to update its BIOS.

Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.9 Ghz  | Gigabyte AB350M Gaming 3 |  PaliT GTX 1050Ti  |  8gb Kingston HyperX Fury @ 2933 Mhz  |  Corsair CX550m  |  1 TB WD Blue HDD


Inside some old case I found lying around.

Ah yes, my bad. It does not have an iGPU. AMD requires that you talk to your motherboard manufacturer first before asking for a boot kit (you can get around that easily but still).

On the website it says:

Supports AMD® Ryzen 1st and 2nd Generation/ Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics/ Athlon™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics and A-series / Athlon™ X4 Processors for Socket AM4.

 

We have requested an AMD Bootkit though.
