Unfortunately I don't have a PS2 keyboard handy.Īlso since creating the thread, I have also attempted different sticks of RAM, in case there was a dead stick or something. 3 times for each, once in each of the different USB version slots. Just tried it with 2 different USB keyboards. Should that not be an option try an old PS2 Keyboard.that seems to have done the trick for those that still had problems.

If that fails try a different Keyboard because others have had problems with some Keyboards. Sofar so good, the only things I can tell you is try plugging you KB and Mouse in to the BLACK USB Ports on the back, I have found that problems pop up when I plug in to the other ports(RED(USB 3.0) BLUE(USB 2.0)), like Can't get into BIOS or GPU DIMM POST locks the system up. G.Skill Ripjaw X 8GB stick of DDRMHz (also tried a 4GB stick of Corsair Dominator DDR3 1333)

_.ĮDIT: Derp, forgot the specs that matter. i'm kind of stumped, though.Īny help? I feel like this is something incredible simple. I tried checking my connections, RAM seating (1 stick of RAM in the farthest slot), removing the CMOS battery, and clearing CMOS via the jumpers. but I can't get into BIOS because the motherboard gets to here, and then shuts off. I have the new BIOS rom on a flash drive,ready to go. Please contact ASUS technical support for help. The data in the EC or EC Flash might be corrupted. 'Please enter setup to recover BIOS setting. I can't even get into BIOS to flash, because it boots up, loads the American Megatrends screen, and gives me the following message. Lo-and-behold, I got the motherboard to post after installing an old Phenom II.ĪNYWAY, my new problem. Those aren't supported unless you have the new 1703 BIOS build.' my friend finally pointed out a stupid error on my part by doing a simple google search. Tested PSUs, CPUs, RAM, Motherboards, etc. I did everything possible to try and get it working. For the past few days i've been having a lot of stress trying to get it working (i've built 3 builds in the past, but my issue this time has been the ever-so-vague red CPU Q LED being on).
