PC not posting

[BiggestBoyo]

I’d really appriciate some help here, I have a Asus B450 E motherboard and the LED on it is white, every component of my computer lights up: Keyboard,GPU,Fans etc. but the computer does not post, if it helps, I’ve already took out the CPU and put it back again, took out and reseated the cmos battery, and tried to run it with just one ram stick, sadly my computer does not have integrated graphics so i cannot tell if this is a GPU issue, I tried some basic overclocking before this issue happened, just the reccomended setting for performance in the BIOS. I will be grateful for any help. Thanks

White's a GPU thing, make sure GPU is slotted correctly and power cables.

When you reseated you CMOS battery, for how long did you leave it disconnected? I have had a motherboard where reseating the CMOS battery is not enough, I had to wait for a few minutes (could have been 10+, I can't remember) with the battery disconnected for the settings to reset. 

 

Another option is to use the clear CMOS header, item 12 on page 17 of your motherboard's manual which resets the setup parameters immediately.

 

I've also noticed that if there is no display connected to the GPU, I obviously have no display but I can hear the Windows power on sound but the VGA (white) LED on my motherboard stays lit as if there is a problem with the GPU. So I would suggest double checking that everything is connected and perhaps connecting speakers in case something is actually wrong with the GPU.
