Won't POST

[Feyza]

Hi dear community,

I'm having a problem with my build - kt won't post.

There is no beeping for debug and I'm suspecting 2 things, the PSU or RAM.

The pc turns on and all its fans, but after about 10s it shuts off and on again.

I tried moving the RAM from one slot to another - no changes until i hit the last slot where the pc would still not post but the fans would still be spinning.

My PSU is older and non modular, has a 4pin connector for the MB which i connected through a converter to make it 8pin.

 

What should I do?

 

GA Z170-HD3

i7 6700K

1xCrucial 8GB DDR4 2666MHz 

1xKingston NVMe 250GB

1x1050Ti (no power connectors needed)

 

Thank you in advance

I'm assuming you just built this system, is the 4 / 8 pin CPU header in the top left corner of the motherboard plugged in?

Yes sir, but as you are just saying that - maybe i should recheck that connection

Never do that.

Then what should I do, can it work thru 4pins?

It's all plugged in, just checked

Move the ram to the further slot from the CPU, it's labeled as slot 1 and you'll want it to be in there.

Next try taking your GPU out and see if you get anything from the on board graphics utilizing the VGA / HDMI out on your motherboard and report back.

Sir, the goosebumps that i got seeing that the pc is working but wasn't firing the signal thru the GPU is just.... Thank you so much!

Now I gotta enter BIOS to send the picture thru gpu but I'll do my OS first

 

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH AGAIN

Looking at the cables the PSU seems garbage. What's the make and model?

 

Remove the GPU and connect the monitor to the motherboard.
