Thats the issue. I have replaced 3 parts that it could be. and its still not working for me. I have reset the cmos. 

I have tried on 2 cpu's and on the other mobo. I don't know what is not working. 

But something different happened now, you got it to boot for a minute. With that config that booted for a minute, you should try another psu, then cpu, then mobo (with different mobo try both psus and cpus.

I am an idiot. I just tried using my HDD instead of my SSD, it wont actually boot into windows, due to the fact that i don't have windows loaded on it, but it is still on after 2 minutes, ill give it a few more minutes, and if thats the case. then ill live with an hdd for a while.

You could've figured that out easier if you spent some time in BIOS and it wouldn't crash in BIOS... lol. That would've made it way easier to point out a drive issue. Lol live and learn. Glad you figured it out.

[nurvdamage]

Now since i can't boot into windows, is there a way to wipe the drive from the bios?

[Duh_tech]

I'm not sure but I think if you just go on the BIOS and click on the drive it might give you an option to delete it.

When you get windows on a USB stick reformatting the drive will be part of the clean installation  ...if that's what you were asking.

 

So no more crashes/restarts when you go into BIOS right? Lol.... thats hilarious. I could've sworn the way you were talking it was just randomly shutting off within seconds. Not restarting after the checksum. Bahaha...

It was just randomly shutting off, im thinking i got a real bad mamma jamma of viruses. They may have gotten in and tore stuff up.

 

 

Thank you all for the help, sorry for wasting your time with a stupid easy fix.

Not stupid. But to narrow it down to an SSD or drive failure just remember to always check another drive or go sit in BIOS next time (if you can't already tell by when it restarts that its a drive issue).

[Duh_tech]

Not a problem glad I could somewhat help.

Ok one last thing though. Before you call your SSD dead... try this ok? Unplug your other drive from the motherboard leaving only the SSD hooked up, no other drives, then go into BIOS... see if you see the SSD under the boot order. Set it as your first boot device. Then save and restart... what happens?

 

[nurvdamage]

still not working. not the drive problem i thought it was.

Light on mobo is on. OC Genie switch lights up when i press it, fans just aren't spinning up, nothing is spinning up, i am fed up with this. i have no idea what this problem is. 

 

[Duh_tech]

Try this remove the heat sink and turn on the PC one second after it is on put your finger on the CPU if it's warm turn off the PC right away, then at least you will know the mobo and cpu are working.

@JayzTwoCents just went through this in this video:

 

since there was some power corruption, possible UEFI got corrupted

Cpu is warm on startup;.

This would help, if my fans would spin, or my pc would actually stay on long enough. I have gone through all of these steps multiple times also, thanks for your help.

[DunePilot]

Working one minute, not working the next, coming on for 2 minutes, now my fans don't even spin... it's hard to understand without having it on a bench in front of you but it sounds so much like a short. Hope you figure it out man. Be sure you unplug anything that isn't necessary especially anything to do with the case like I already mentioned (USB and Firewire plugs, etc..., heck even unplug the sata cables), down to one stick of ram, if you have an igpu and a monitor connector on the motherboard then remove the GPU too, then just try to get into BIOS. If you can find any configuration as barebones as possible that allows you to get in BIOS and are able to sit in BIOS without any random restarts then start slowly adding parts back in until you figure out the problem, go to the core temp monitor in your BIOS and just sit there and see if it stays on without crashing.

Disconnected the gpu, powered it on, works fine, plug the gpu back in, stops powering on immediately

i don't know what would cause that but, going to grab a new one now.

Try a different PCI-E slot. If it still doesn't work then your GPU might be crapping the bed on you.

@nurvdamage No GPU though.. it actually is working? You're able to get into Windows or at least BIOS and it stays on for a considerable amount of time?
