Dead X99 Ud4?
Insomnia:
So one minute my x99 ud4 with a 5820k and corsair rm750 psu were working fine. Turned it off normally and then remembered I had a cd in the drive I wanted out. At that point the computer would not reboot.
Basically nothing. Not even a beep.
Looking at it the fbios light flashes briefly (under a second then nothing). I've disconnected everything (including cpu) and it still does it. When connected to a 400w psu the fbios light stays on.
Figured it was the psu so ordered an hx750i to find its made no difference at all. Computer stoll won't boot.
Dead mobo or something else going on?
Ta.

Try and pull the battery and jump out the cmos pins. Let is sit for a couple hrs. Then un-jump the pins put the battery back in then try it. Not saying it is going to work. But some times it locks up.
Now the other thing it could be some thing shorting out too. Have you try to removing stuff even the memory and video card. Just see if it will power on.
Insomnia:
Well things just went weird. Got the computer to fire up into bios with bare essentials connected using a cheapy ace 400w psu. If I connect either corsair psu I have it doesn't work.
The corsairs however power the computer that the ace psu came out of.

Well another update!
Turns out the motherboard won't switch on with any decent PSU now. However a low wattage cheap one gets it fired up. So I guess something has failed on the board.
With a huge list of compatibility issues, flakey reboots and now this power issue, I've decided to ditch the board and buy an alternative brand. And guess what? No issues. Finally I can enjoy the 5820k processor without worrying if the machine will turn on, or whether I wont be able to boot past the BIOS screen anymore.
Sorry Gigabyte, I've not used your boards in years and have to say I'm not likely to again in a very long time. The X99-UD4 motherboard has been not only a catastrophic waste of money, it's been the worst board I've ever had the misfortune of buying :( Unreliable, full of bugs and ultimately, poor quality. Shame :(

I would have to somewhat agree with you. Never known such a flakey motherboard. After sometime wrestling with mine I found a solution work around to my hanging at boot problems. Keeping my fingers crossed that mine doesn't go like yours :( The slightest little thing seems to upset these boards. :-\
