Computer restarts after first boot

As seen in the video everytime I turn on the computer it will run for a moment then stop and then restart again. After the restart it will keep going without restarting. I am getting a black screen regardless of whether I am using my graphics card or the mobo's adapters. The only new thing is the CPU and mobo.

What is the memory model/part number?

 

Do you have anything overclocked?

are you sure all power connectors are connected to the motherboard?

your video could have just as well been a jpeg, you need to record so that we can see the components inside the box.

 

it could be a faulty ram stick, try with one stick of ram, could also be that the ram needs to be in specific slots to work, try changing the slots the ram are in.

[LogicalDrm]

Does it do that only after you have disconnected it from wall socket/flipped PSU switch or everytime? That sounds like normal PSU selftest.  But it could be something in mobo settings to make it stop that.

This is be the ram I'm using:http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7566742&SRCCODE=CANWGOOCAPLA&cm_mmc_o=mH4CjC7BBTkwCjCECjCE&gclid=CLnrlZvtnrwCFe6DQgodYWcATg

 

As for OC I haven't even gotten into bios to OC =.=

All the ram are working fine as I had them running in another mobo. As for the one stick of ram I have already tried that. In terms of the video it's purpose was to show the sound of how the computer would boot, stop for a few seconds then restart.

It does it every time even after the PSU switch has been flipped.

[SkilledRebuilds]

There are a few systems I've experienced this on, and nothing seems out of order, no bios options that look like their the cause.

 

I think its the PSU itself doing a self-test prior to full powerup.

The link doesn't work. But changing the .ca to .com produces the page.

 

I've seen systems that do this when the BIOS detects some sort of instability and has to change something before it can bring the system up. If it isn't the psu doing a self-test, you may well find the problem goes away once you get the BIOS properly configured and a good boot and proper shut-down.

 

I'm a little confused, is the machine booting into the BIOS or is it in a loop continually restarting? If the later, check that the cpu cooler fans are working and the cooler is well seated.

Sounds like its a problem between your psu and motherboard. Make sure all your power cables are connected, 24pin atx and 8pin CPU connectors. Make sure your heatsink is installed correctly on your CPU and has adequate thermal paste. Use one stick of ram when booting and make sure your motherboard is grounded properly in your chassis, make sure no metal is touching it and try loosening the screws you have attached to your mobo standoffs it doesn't have to vEry tight just enough so your motherboard stays in place. Your motherboard could be shorting somewhere or think it's shorting somewhere so any standoffs you don't need just unscrew them from your chassis. Make sure you unplug your power supply from outlet when doing any of these troubleshooting steps.

The machine is booting but I dont get anything on the monitor. The thing is after i turn it on around 5s later it will just stop and then restart. After it restarts nothing happens.

If the PSU is doing a selftest then it must be real long one since I dont notice anything happening.

Could it be possible that the ram isnt compatible with the mobo? Looking at asrock's compatibility list, mine isn't listed there.

The memory should boot at 1.5v DDR3-1333MHz CL9-9-9 according to http://www.kingston.com/datasheets/KHX16C9B1BK2_8X.pdf.

 

Have you tried to boot with a single stick of memory and no gpu installed?

Do you have a different memory part you could try, just to rule out memory?

Well, I know the ram works since it worked fine on my old mobo. In terms of another set of ram il have to wait til the beginning of next week to test it which is kinda lame.

I doubt it's the memory but you had raised the question of compatibility.

 

I was just reviewing the OP. The motherboard is not a Asrock fatal1ty z77 killer, right?

The mobo is a Asrock fatal1ty z77 killer.

[brob]

The mobo is a Asrock fatal1ty z77 killer.

 

Perhaps the problem is that the cpu an i7-4770k socket LGA1150, is not compatible with the ASRock Fatal1ty Z77 Killer motherboard, socket 1155.

Oops MB I have a z87 killer. Rushed reading.Edited OP to reflect this.

Very glad to see that.

 

Do you have power connected to the SLI/XFIRE molex connector on the motherboard?

I am using onbaord video to get it to work.

Just working through the details. At this point it seems to me that it is most likely a bad motherboard. It could be a problem with a bent pin or two on the cpu socket.

 

There is a case speaker header just below the front-panel header. Do you have that connected to a speaker? If so are you getting any beeps? If not and if your case did not come with a speaker you might consider getting one at your local Radio Shack or computer parts store, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812201032. The beep codes might help in determining what is wrong.

There are no speaker for the beeps. Checked and saw the pins are bent. Ima see if i can bend or back or il have to have asrock repair with their high fee.
