Desktop No Display - After Transporting

LaiLaiNoob · September 12, 2015

Hello everyone!

I just moved to Toronto from quite afar and I moved my desktop along with me. When I moved my desktop, it was wrapped with multiple layers of bubblewrap with the graphics card removed and everything else tightened down.

Now after putting back the parts I am unable to get a display signal from the computer, I have tried the following.

Removing the 2 GTX970s and using the onboard GPU
Placing one GPU on the PCI-E X16 slot.
Placing one GPU on the PCI-E X8 slot.
CMOS CLR button.
CMOS battery removal.
Hard drives unplugged.

Neither of these situations has the computer successfully booted up. During a large majority of the tests the motherboard gets stuck with QCODE 71 and with the VGA_LED lit up. There have been two times where the QCODE has been different with QCODE 98 and none of the error LEDs light up.

QCODE 9A also lights up.

Before moving it the computer was running perfectly, I'm not sure what the case is now. I am absolutely stumped.

Thanks for any input and advice!
