Code 55 POST error

[ALD]

Hi everyone, 

I built a custom loop recently but am having that pesky 55 post error... i cleared CMOS and rsetted bios multiple times, took the CMOS battery out for 15 mins, took my M2 from the on board slot and switched to the DIMM but still with no avail. No error codes from RAM, CPU, GPU till i hit HDD and gives me D7 followed by 55.

Asus zenith extreme alpha

Thank you for your time wishing you merry Christmas and happy holidays!

Pull out all peripherals except for 1 keyboard and 1 mouse?

Well that's the thing i unplugged my keyboard and mouse and still say i have 4 keyboards... i don't know what keyboards the bloody Mobo detecting...

Swapped rad fans yesterday and had the same issue. 

 

The issues that ive have that caused it were my raid setup. I removed all the storage and it posted like normal.

Another issue was the interference between my mobo waterblock and the cpu block. Given the large gap in time when they were produced. 

Cpu block would get hung up on the mobo block and cause uneven pressure.

What should i do then??

[Mick Naughty]

Is it posting like in the pic and giving you the code?

Also, photo of your setup with as much detail on the ports plugged in would be best, recommend flash

Thank you my fellow fellows, hopefully with your help it can be figured out.

So still missing details. Did it post at any point after the water cooling? I assume it was all tested prior?

Did you check the pressure on the cpu and or reset it? Given the issues with that cpu. 

[ALD]

The system worked prior to water cooling, when i installed the block i applied enough torque on it and positively sure its secure. I did not post after putting the loop on, i unplugged all usb devices and connectors to make sure its not external issue and its not because i still have the same issue, i checked the usb connectors on the board and they seem fine. 

[Mick Naughty]

Did you take the cpu block off?

[ALD]

I have not

I have not

Let's start with the really obvious stuff.

 

1. Your memory sticks are all on one side of the board, which is not recommended. Going from left to right, It should be I O I O      O I O I where I's represent slots that should receive a memory stick and O is not.

 

2. Please try to POST while removing the USB 3.1 and USB2.0 headers from the board. Plug only 1 keyboard directly into the motherboard

3. If it POSTs, try to re-plug in one connector at the time, trying different headers if it causes issues.

I'll try it today and let you guys know if it works

Thanks guys for your help!

Update: so i reinstalled the cpu trying to get rid of the code which it worked Yay no more 55 Yay! ;however, I now get code 00 so i got me a qvl memory kit from gskill installed this morning and still code 00... guys i have a feeling i broke something and its making me feel all kind of negative feelings and its no fault but mine...

Take some mounting pressure of the block.
