GA-X99-UD5 post reboot loop

(1/4) > >>

esgeroth:
I just started a new build with the following hardware: GA-X99-UD5, intel i7 5960X, Crucial 8GB DDR4 (CT8G4DFD8213), and an Evga Geforce 660.
When I power the system on it will show the gigabyte logo screen with the options to enter bios or boot menu at the bottom, then beeps once and powers off. It will not enter the bios from either hitting the delete key on the keyboard or by pushing the direct to bios button on the motherboard. There is no response from the keyboard. I have tried resetting the bios even though I have not been able to get in to make any changes.
What should I try next?

How many sticks of memory are you using. If just one it has to be in slot 3 not slot 1.  If two sticks they have to be in slots 3 & 7.

If that doesn't work than check to make sure you don't have a bent pin in the CPU socket.

I found my problem to be a usb card reader. I thought that I had alll the peripherals unplugged but the card reader was still plugged in. Without the card reader the system boots fine. Now the problem is I have tried 3 different card readers to the same effect. If there is a card reader plugged in then the system will reboot as soon as the gigabyte logo is displayed. Any idea why a card reader will cause the system to do this?

Are you on latest BIOS......F8b ?

I've had the same thing happen with my X-99 Gaming G1 WIFI.  It has been running fine for a day, then I started adding my external USB hard drives, some USB 3.0, some USB 2.0.  With the USB 3.0 drives connected it was still fine.  The USB 2.0 drives are connected to an external hub.  When I connected the hub is when the problem started.  Cleared the CMOS, pushed direct to bios, switched to bios 2 all to no effect. When I unplugged ALL the USB cables and the hub it finally booted to the bios and I had to reset everything as I had before.

Will the latest bios fix this abberant behavior?
