Posted May 19, 2017 Mobo = Asus x370 Prime Pro BIOS version 0511 (It is said to work with Ryzen ) Processor = Ryzen 1700x Ram = Corsair vengeance LPX DDR4 8x2 C15 3000Mhz GPU= Asus Strix 1060 OC PSU = Antec Edge 750 First of all, I forgot to attach the CPU power Pins and i started the mobo by touching a screw driver on the Power and Ground pins. Everything was glowing but no display. (I thought it was a BIOS problem as x370 is known to be notorious with Ryzen but the BIOS version is 0511) After half and hour I inserted the jumper in the Ground and power pin while the PSU was ON. From that moment onward the mobo isn't ready the start. The leds on the mobo won't glow either. Tried installing the ram in different slots but its worthless when the mobo refuses to start. Now when I realized about the CPU pins, I plugged in the CPU 8 pin power cord but still the mobo acts like it is dead. Is it really dead? Need help please.

Posted May 19, 2017 Well if its not posting, your mobo might be fried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No POST no BIOS Also the mobo has no source to know if there are any errors. I tried attaching a speaker to the 4 pins but now it just doesn't switch on. Permanently (Jumper in my case) shorting the switch on the motherboard would be like holding the power-button indefinitely right? (Jumper was there just for a few seconds before I turned the PSU off) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 19, 2017 Thing is, you don't need a jumper on the pins for the power SWITCH, as the actual switch is a Momentary Contact Switch (aka: only let power flow between pins whilst circuit is completed by pressing the button). Putting that jumper on the pins is basically telling the mobo "I am holding down the power button infinitely" until the jumper is removed.

Already removed it. I just tried it once. After that I tired by the normal way of jump starting a mobo, i.e touching a screw driver between the Ground and Power Pin. Still No lights, no display, no beeps. 18 hours ago, jj9987 said: Please translate/describe this in more detail please. What exactly did you do and when? First I was jump starting the mobo by a screw driver. This time I hadn't plugged in the 8 pin CPU power. Then I inserted the jumper in the Ground and power pin when the PSU was ON. ( even this time I hadn't plugged in the 8 pin CPU power.) Removed the jumper and tried by the normal screw driver way again After this, the leds on the mobo stopped glowing, the GPU fans don't spin neither does the cooler's (Masterliquid 240) Now i realized about the CPU pins, I plugged them in. But still nothing happens. NO POST, No leds, No fans spinning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proud Ryzen owner, not sure what notorious issue you're talking about. When you first start a Ryzen PC, the first boot sequence can take a bit. It's pretty crazy, but normal for the first boot. Did you ever reconnect the CPU power pins? This would be the x8pin connector neat the corner of the board. Male sure everything is properly connected. Powered off and unplugged. Clear CMOS. Then turn back on the normal way if possible. Otherwose, you may have shorted your board. Not sure why you put a jumper on it. Random (yet thought out) question. Did you use any anti-static precautions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If still no post then hope you can RMA the board Also watch a video on how to test your new hardware outside of a case and stop jumping things with screw drivers, honestly your asking for trouble.

For the love of god and all that is holly do not remove the battery while the system is powered on. Remove it with system powered down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't take what I'm about to say the wrong way but, seeing your answers and the fact that you installed a jumper on the power connector, I would strongly suggest you get someone to help you IRL before you do more damages. With that said, ALWAYS work on the PC when the power is off, always. If you need help with your forum account, please use the Forum Support form !

Asked the question just to confirm whether powering off and doing it was the correct way. It's not a stupid question BTW, it's a very good question, the problem is, you're in the middle of a build and it's really not the best time to ask about this, it's stuff you should already know. Again, not trying to be harsh or rude, but since you seem to be missing some information on how to build a PC, make sure to get appropriate help IRL. Or, you can always go on YouTube and look at a build from a good channel, it's often well shown and explained. As for your problem, try to see if it's the PSU, unplug everything and test it with the paperclip method. If you need help with your forum account, please use the Forum Support form !

Small steps, but you get rolling along afterwards. No a shame in asking for help ahead of time. as @wkdpaul stated , I'd ask for some real life help to determine if the board needs RAM or if something is set up wrong (such as standoffs, wrong IO setup, etc...). Maybe you have the reset button hooked up to the power, maybe the power switch on the PSU isn't toggled correctly, and a bunch of other things you might not think of just because your frustrated. That happens to the best of us too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
