I have a problem that I never Experience Before. I bought some new stuff for my computer.

 

Motherboard :

 

MSI Z87-G45 GAMING ATX

intel i7 hashwell

Gefore 660ti gpu

vengeance crosair 16gb ram

vyper 212 cooler

 

When I got my stuff I realize I forgot the chassi haha.. so I order one, but at meanwhile I used an old chassi to try the stuff out. Everything worked great untill totday when my new chassi arrived. I installed Everything in the new chassi but the problem is it wont start. : the fans starts running veryslow for 2 secounds then it turns of by itself and trys to start up again and so it goes, unitll I plug the computer off. (this is all fans im talkiung about even the cpu fan)

 

This is what I tried , 2 diffrent supplies, tried the ram memmory and the gpu in Another computer and it worked fine. I tried to put it back in my old chassi that I used first for this build but no luck there. Ive checked the Cables 100 times, nothing is wrong .its like the computer is trying to start but it some safty thing sets off becouse something is not right. I checked the pins and the look straight to me, Ive even tried this called 30 secounds push when u gold the Power button in 30 sec to get all the Power from the motherboard go away (to reset ) Ive tried to reset the Cmos and it still gives me the same problem. I checked the "screws" behind the motherboard, and im using it just how the book for the motherboad and chassi tells me to! What the F is the problem here ?

 

I really appreciate if someone could come up with an ide what is wrong with it.

 

sorry for my English haha Im Swedish!

<p>I didnt write it but thats is something I tried aswell,

<p>Im wondering tho if it maybe short Circuit a one Point but the fans woulnt run at all then right ? I have no ide how it would short ciruit tho. anything els ?

<div style="text-align: left;">And the motherboard has an led light that should be lighting up when computer starts but the light turns off at the same time as the fans stops running and then restarts by itself again

So you tried re-assembling the PC outside the case and booting it?

Thats right I did, I have no ide why that would work if its not working in the chassi but yeah I tried that 2

 

There is no way I F something up but im so scared that the mothermoard or the gpu is broken, It dosent have to big something big to break it, It was warm in my room when I was assembling the computer maybe some sweet on my finger did the work ? -.- even tho I was very carefull to keep my hands try u never know ?

Sounds like a motherboard short to me. Did you make sure you don;t have any standoffs that don't line up with a mounting hole in the motherboard? Try different sticks of RAM entirely, one by one. Look up how to re-flash the motherboard BIOS and try that maybe. Also, try disconnecting all of the motherboard's connectors (Including fans, it won't hurt to run it for ~30 seconds without a moving CPU fan, make sure the heat-sink is still on though) but leave power and display connectors. If none of that works, you might have fried your motherboard with static shock. Get another and try it. If that doesn't work, try a new CPU. If none of that works, I have absolutely no idea. It doesn't sound like a PSU issue, but if you become desperate, try that too.

No I didnt Another Components on the motherboard becouse I dont need to, this is why, becouse I know the ram is working and the gpu is working, I even tried to start the computer with my own gpu since my motherboard has it own gpu, so all that is connected it the Cables cpu and ram. and i tried with harddrive on and of, same problem.haha and no I dont have a Another haswell cpu :/ maybe faulty board :(

I used the standoff so the problem is not there, the motherboard lines up with the screws perfectly. I tried without fans aswell, BUT ! when I took the cpu fan of I can see that I might use to much heat sink ? I can see that the heat sink dropped a litle bit outside of the cpu, u know the green Square that us hooked up to the cpu ? just a litle bit of the heat sink is there ? problem ? 

 

Ive also used anti static shock bracelet so I dont thing I did :/

Try powering the PC on with the CPU heat-sink not on the CPU just for a bit try and feel if the CPU is getting hotter

that will indicate that it is at least receiving power.

*as soon as you feel it getting warm/hot unplug the power cord!.

Just because the RAM worked before, doesn't mean it works now. If you have a quirky problem, 90% of the time it is RAM. Try one stick at a time in different slots. I had a desktop before that would bluescreen, I would repair it using the Windows disk, boot it up, and it worked perfectly. Then I would take it back to their office, and it would bluescreen again. This happened twice, it was the RAM.

I just tried with only one ram and tried with the other one 2. I tried without any ram. And earlier today I tried the rams on this computer Im sitting at right now .
