Why would you consider buying a non working motherboard if you cant even look up error codes yourself?

Which one? They've made a lot of motherboards, and ASRock is arguably the least consistent motherboard manufacturer out there with the most variance from board to board. 

 

Also if it beeps when booting and doesn't boot, don't buy it for anything but a wall decoration.

Hi guys, i want to buy a used Asrock mobo, and the seller says it does 7 beeps when he starts it, what does that mean? and how can that be fixed?

For AMI BIOS',

7 short Virtual mode processor exception error The CPU has generated an exception error because of a fault in the CPU or motherboard circuitry

If it's too good to be true for the motherboard, it's probably defective.

it does 7 beeps, and then does not turn on? That means it's broken. Get yourself a different one.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

How many watts do I need?

lol what

 

Per what @CommanderAlex helpfully dug up:

Quote

7 short Virtual mode processor exception error The CPU has generated an exception error because of a fault in the CPU or motherboard circuitry

 

long story short: the seller tested the motherboard with no CPU, and got a CPU error, wonderful. But please, don't buy products from sellers that don't properly test their products before selling. The only proper motherboard to buy is one that can most definitely fully boot up, with a CPU installed.

So the seller doesn't know what they are doing, or they are hiding something. There are lots of alarm bells here. Either way, it sounds like this is a bad idea. I'd skip this one. Even on a tight budget, have some patience and wait for the right deal to come to you. You'll find a working board.
