Alright... Now having some probs. Initial boot with my new case and watercooling build ( http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/cooling/1242-worklog-watercooling-mm-u2-ufo.html ) was yesterday morning... Everything powered up fine but no post! No boot screen! I know it's not a graphic problem or anything related to the screen because i don't even see the mouse and keyboard lights getting on after i powered the system up. So, it has to be something around the mobo, CPU, RAM and or PSU.
I have hooked everything on my desk, out of the case, with another PSU, only 1 GPU (X1900XTX) and with stock CPU cooler. And still no post! Tried to remove the ram stick 1 by 1 to see if one was dead (I had the same prob a few months back, comp not posting... and it was because of a dead RAM stick...) but still nothing! F***!
After about 2 mins the CPU fan stops spinning ? WTHeck ? Like i said, i don't even see the lights of the mouse and keyboard lightining up. So, that means that it's not related to Graphic cards or monitor right ? Also, 5 sec after i booted up, the HDD seems to not be reading anymore. I can't ear the ''Crrrrr'' sound anymore.
So, that leave me 2 possible reasons why the comp isn't posting. Either the CPU is dead, maybe i crushed it...applying too much pressure on it with the FuZion WB ? Would the comp even boot if it would be the case ? Or the mobo has something somewhere not working... I did mounted a new (quite heavy) NB heatsink on it while i was working on my watercooling. Could i have crushed the NB core ? and would the comp even boot ?
What really sucks more is that im totaly clueless on what hardware is deffective... and sent my last E6400 a few days... So, i can't try with another CPU. As for the mobo... well i don't have any others...
What a pain in the ... If anybody can help me out finding what the heck is wrong here i'd apreciate a lot.
I might try to switch my X1900XTX for my X1950CF to see if anything comes up on the screen but i doubt it would change anything. If it really was a graphic card related problem, i would see the light of the mouse and keyboard powering up sometime after i booted, right ?
HELP ME! LOL
Thanks!
