hi guys, could really use some help
i moved my system to a much larger full tower case for extra drive space and a few other perks plus lots of space
x99-ud3 mobo 5820k intel - corsair ddr4- xfx r9 270 - seasonic 1050 gold
psu is oversized for present equipment has plenty of power
the system was working flawlessly until I moved it to the new motherboard!!!!
now all i get is fan spinup and attempt to boot 5 seconds then reboot
its an endless cycle like many had on these boards from the early bad bios's
i don't have a case speaker sadly and the new case didn't come with one oddly enough
the motherboard seems to be working fine, i even put the f22 bios on a usb and the amber light flashed a few minutes then went solid - since i'd just moved to f22 from f20 a week I used the qflash to downgrade the bios
the rewritten f22 and f20 bios do the same exact thing - power for 5seconds then reboot
some had reported that their systems would eventually boot after many cycles so i left it 10 minutes and nothing
usb keyboard never gets power so it doesn't get to that step
i removed all connections all sata everything but the xfx video card and tried and nothing
reseated all power connections
all standoffs are correct and screws in them no grounding that i can see or issues
i'm wondering if the video card died turning the transplant possibly?
does anyone have any diagnostic steps I can take - i dont have another vid card and there is no onboard video on these
i even hooked up the power switch on the old case to the mother board to make sure the new cases switch was jammed
i disconnected all reset/hdd light usb usb3 sata etc from mobo and still can't get it to boot
i can order a speaker as so far i haven't found one here though i may have one
are there audible diagnostic beeps that might help?
motherboard flashes bios (or so it seems) perfectly
have lots of tech experience but i'm not sure what else i can do at present
i'm hoping someone has some ideas for me or ran into this problem
i presume that if the vid card died somehow that would stop it form posting?
i pulled the cmos battery and pulled power and hit power button to try to drain mobo to reset cmos
did not try to jumper cmos reset pins but i can try that if it works better than what i did with battery - let me know
im in a high humidity area so i do not think there was/is risk of static discharge here
the cpu was left on motherboard for transplant - cooler is plugged into motherboard
i'm stumped - i've got a hunch this vid card mighta took a dive but the odds are low
i reseated the vid card to the second pci area just in case with no luck
any help is much appreciated thank you sincerely
ps I could move it back to the old case just for kicks if you think it will help but its a lot of work plus having disconnected everything from the motherboard and even using the old cases power switch as a test didn't do anything for me
