[CashtonKetchum]

I just built my first pc when i go to turn it on it the ez debugs light up and the boot led stays lit. Ive tried resetting cmos, reseating everything, rewiring everything, a bios update and nothing has worked. 

 

Specs are

Ryzen 5 3600

2 x 16gb t force dark z 

Msi b550 tomahawk

Gigabyte rx 580

Western digital blue sn 550 1tb ssd

Corsair rm 850x

@CashtonKetchum A quick look to your board's manual shows this:

 

Are you trying to do a Windows install or just booting into already installed windows?

Tell us in more detail

[CashtonKetchum]

Im just trying to boot to the bios so i can install windows

 

[CashtonKetchum]

I do have a usb with windows in the system

@CashtonKetchum Try clearing CMOS.

You can search online how to do that

 

[CashtonKetchum]

I tried that i took out the battery as well as the connecter thing

The boot light usually means there is no drive attached or the drive has failed. It wont get past that until you plug a working drive in.

 

Is your hdd plugged in while you are doing this? If so can you test it on another computer to confirm if it's working?

All i have is a nvme drive and wouldnt it still go to bios without a drive

Actually it should go to the BIOS without any boot drive..

See this. They fixed it somehow by switching to HDMI. Try this?

@CashtonKetchum Or try creating a new boot drive and plugging in different usb ports

 

[CashtonKetchum]

Ive tried both hdmi and dp

[CashtonKetchum]

Still nothing when changing the usb slot

@CashtonKetchum See, the LED being stuck a Boot means there's something wrong with either the USB or the storage drives.

Please confirm these questions for me:

Is monitor connected to GPU's output port?

Is the NVME drive properly seated?

Have you tried re-creating the USB boot drive?

Tried plugging the newly created USB in the back USB connectors?

Try all this again and ping me back.

@Spotty Sorry for quoting you, but you seem far much experienced and this post isn't getting many replies.

In short:

This guy's specs are:

Ryzen 5 3600

2 x 16gb t force dark z 

Msi b550 tomahawk

Gigabyte rx 580

Western digital blue sn 550 1tb ssd (nvme)

Corsair rm 850x

His mobo is stuck on BOOT led with no output in monitor. New build, trying to get into BIOS for windows install.

Your thought?

[Spotty]

Can see in the first photo that the ram is installed in the wrong slots. Put them in slots 2 & 4. (DIMMA2 & DIMMB2)

[CashtonKetchum]

Ok i will but that still doesnt fox the issue 

[CashtonKetchum]

And ive done all of those except recreate the usb boot drive

 

[CashtonKetchum]

I tested the boot drive on another computer and it works but not in the new system

[CashtonKetchum]

Now the boot led will go off but still no signal

Having the same exact issue with all new parts. any solutions?
