I just finished my first build and I turned the PC to check how everything works, it turns on but there is a Solid Orange light at the bottom of the motherboard, It has 2 lights one at the top which turns white and the other one. I can´t check if it POST since my GPU arrives tomorrow.

There is no OS yet.

I´add a pic a bit, my phone is charging rn.

Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B350-F

That's probably your standby LED. It's pretty standard on ASUS boards. My sibling's ASUS Z77 board has that on when the system has power. Nothing to worry about.

What is your PSU? It could be an unstable power supply.

HEADS UP, THIS ACCOUNT IS INACTIVE NOW

I'm keeping everything else the way it was for anyone who might check out my answers in future, but I won't be using LTT.

Never mind, I mistook your issue for one that can occur on other Asus boards where the orange light actually indicates a faulty PSU. Its ok, as BlueChinchillaEatingDorito said that's just your standby LED.

I was having a similar problem with my Asus tuf x570 Mobo,went to micro center and was told my MOBO was failing, but once I had a replacement one, the problem was still there, the way I solved this issue was going into the bios and turning off fast boot and uninstalling Asus ai 3, turns out many people have problems with the Asus ai program and asus armory crate either that or its due to the latest bios update.
