PC isn't posting

[KancerousKanadian]

So I got a new case for my PC and rebuilt it inside of it

When I turn it on

surprise!

It doesn't want to post for me.

My mouse LED is always on

my fan LEDs power on

my fans power on

it just won't post

 

I know it all works because I legit used the exact same stuff in a different case last night 

 

help please

Hey, Im really sorry but I can't help. I am building my first pc and I will probably come into this problem. I do have some advice. Try removing the CMOS round battery and waiting a minute then put it back in. I don't know if that is what your supposed to do because I migh be wrong. Good luck in getting it to POST

Does the board have an internal speaker connected? If yes, do you get any beeps? If no, take out all ram, do you get a series of beeps?

@meenmeen1103 unfortunately I don't have one

Try resetting the CMOS.

[meenmeen1103]

Did you make sure to only install the necessary standoffs in the case/uninstall unnecessary ones?

[KancerousKanadian]

@meenmeen1103

Only a few standoffs that would screw it

 

@r00tH4cK3r

Dont know how I'd do it.

mobo is MSI 970 gaming FX if that helps

A visual explanation might be easier, so here is a video on how to do it

hmmm.......make sure all your power connectors are hooked up and everything is properly seated. Also make sure your motherboard isn't grounding out somewhere, because that could cause problems.

I found a speaker that came with an old case so I tried what you suggested.

No beeps with RAM installed but I did get the series of beeps without it

This means your mobo, psu and cpu are likely fine. Unplug gpu, storage drives, usb headers and try booting with a single ram stick. You should get a single beep. If you do, add gpu and see if you get into bois. Then start connecting everything else until you find what keeps from posting.

@meenmeen1103 I got a click from the speaker
